HRES 28 United States House · 119th Congress

BRIDGE to Congress Resolution

This resolution amends House Rule 5 to remove the requirement that committee chairs must approve remote witness testimony. It directly affects committee witnesses and chairs by eliminating the chair's discretion to block remote appearances during committee proceedings. The change ensures witnesses can participate remotely without needing the chair's permission, streamlining committee operations. (Procedural resolution; 2 sentences)
