HRES 521 United States House · 118th Congress

Censuring Adam Schiff, Representative of the 30th Congressional District of California.

HRES 521 is a formal resolution censuring Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA, 30th District) for conduct deemed "unbecoming" of a House member. The resolution alleges Schiff repeatedly made false claims about Trump-Russia collusion, including spreading Steele Dossier information and releasing a flawed FISA memo, and misled the public during impeachment proceedings. If passed, it would require Schiff to appear in the House chamber for a public reading of the censure resolution. The resolution also directs the House Ethics Committee to investigate Schiff's "falsehoods and misrepresentations." This is a symbolic procedural action, not a law changing policy or affecting constituents.
