A resolution to authorize testimony and representation in United States v. Kenyon.

This resolution authorizes Daniel Schwager, a former employee of the Senate's Office of the Secretary, to provide testimony in the criminal case *United States v. Kenyon* (Case No. 23-101), excluding matters protected by Senate privileges. It also directs the Senate Legal Counsel to represent Schwager and any current or former employee of the Secretary's office regarding this testimony.
