A Resolution amending House Rule 14, further providing for members' and employees' expenses.
HR 47, a resolution amending House Rule 14, updates reimbursement rules for Pennsylvania House members and employees related to legislative expenses. It caps travel and daily allowances at the federal government’s maximum rate, requires detailed receipts for all claims, and restricts district office staff reimbursements to approved training or conferences. The resolution also mandates public disclosure of the total funds allocated for members’ expenses on a House website. These changes standardize reporting and increase transparency in how legislative expenses are handled.
