 IV  119th CONGRESS  2d Session  H. RES. 1454  IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES   July 23, 2026   Ms. Mace  submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the  Committee on House Administration    RESOLUTION
Directing the Committee on House Administration to revoke and prevent the registration of certain Congressional Member Organizations and Congressional Staff Organizations.
Whereas for decades there have been Congressional Member Organizations (commonly referred to as caucuses) and Congressional Staff Organizations formed on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin and who admit and decline to admit members on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin;
Whereas Congressional Member Organizations and Congressional Staff Organizations formed on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin serve as affinity groups to organize and advocate for the perceived interests of a particular race, color, ethnicity, or national origin over others;
Whereas Representatives are expected to represent all of their constituents and not favor or disfavor any individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin;
Whereas admitting or declining to admit members to an organization on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin is an act of discrimination on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin; and
Whereas providing recognition to Congressional Member Organizations or Congressional Staff Organizations which discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin affects the dignity and integrity of the proceedings of the House: Now, therefore, be it
That the Committee on House Administration shall revoke, and may not approve, the registration of any Congressional Member Organization or Congressional Staff Organization that—
(1)
is formed primarily or substantially on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin;
(2)
admits or declines to admit members on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, or national origin; or
(3)
organizes or advocates for the perceived interests of a particular race, color, ethnicity, or national origin over others.
