An applicant for press credentials through the Daily Press Galleries must establish to the satisfaction of the Standing Committee of Correspondents that he or she is a full- time, paid correspondent who requires on-site access to congressional members and staff. Correspondents must be employed by a news organization: (a) with General Publication periodicals mailing privileges under U.S. Postal Service rules, and which publishes daily; or (b) whose principal business is the daily dissemination of original news and opinion of interest to a broad segment of the public, and which has published continuously for 18 months. The applicant must reside in the Washington, D.C. area, and must not be engaged in any lobbying or paid advocacy, advertising, publicity or promotion work for any individual, political party, corporation, organization, or agency of the U.S. government, or in prosecuting any claim before Congress or any federal government department, and will not do so while a member of the Daily Press Galleries. Applicants’ publications must be editorially independent of any institution, foundation or interest group that lobbies the federal government, or that is not principally a general news organization. Failure to provide information to the Standing Committee for this determination, or misrepre- senting information, can result in the denial or revocation of credentials. 5. Members of the families of correspondents are not entitled to the privileges of the galleries. 6. The Standing Committee of Correspondents shall propose no changes in the these rules except upon petition in writing signed by not less than 100 accredited members of the galleries. The above rules have been approved by the Committee on Rules and Administration. NANCY PELOSI, Speaker of the House of Representatives.
