A resolution to authorize testimony and representation in United States v. Antonio.
This Senate resolution (SRES 502) authorizes former Senate employee Daniel Schwager to provide testimony in the criminal case *United States v. Antonio* (Case No. 21-497) pending in the District of Columbia federal court. It specifically permits Schwager to testify about matters related to his official Senate duties, excluding any topics where Senate privilege would apply. The resolution also directs the Senate Legal Counsel to represent Schwager and other current or former Senate employees regarding evidence requests tied to their official responsibilities. This is a procedural resolution focused on Senate privilege and employee representation, not a policy change.
