House committee would stop official recognition for certain Congressional groups based on race or ethnicity.
Official recognition for certain Congressional groups based on race or ethnicity would end. This resolution would tell the House Administration Committee to cancel the official registration of existing Congressional Member Organizations (caucuses) and Congressional Staff Organizations formed based on race, color, ethnicity, or national origin. It would also stop new groups like these from registering, ending official support and recognition for them within Congress.
Today, Congressional Member Organizations and Staff Organizations can register even if they are formed based on race, color, ethnicity, or national origin, or if they admit/decline members or advocate based on these factors. If this resolution passes, the House Administration Committee would be directed to revoke the official registration of such existing groups and prevent new ones from registering.
