ETHICS COMMITTEE -- Repeals and enacts a new House Rule 76 governing the House Ethics Committee.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
This Resolution first repeals Rule 76 of the House of Representatives, Committee on Ethics.

The revised rule maintains several key provisions including make-up of the Committee's membership, selection process and timelines. It also addresses and/or clarifies procedures for recordkeeping, managing complaints, ensuring confidentiality, initiating investigations, removing the limitation on expulsion and using civil proceeding language, not criminal proceeding language.
