BUSINESS MEETING: COMMITTEE RESOLUTION 115–9: A COMMITTEE RESOLUTION TO 

ALLOCATE FUNDS FROM THE COMMITTEE 

RESERVE FUND 

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 2018 

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, 

COMMITTEE ON HOUSE ADMINISTRATION, 

Washington, DC. 

The Committee met, pursuant to call, at 1:07 p.m., in Room 

1310, Longworth House Office Building, Hon. Gregg Harper [Chairman of the Committee] presiding. 

Present: Representatives Harper, Davis, Comstock, Loudermilk, 

and Brady. 

Staff Present: Sean Moran, Staff Director; Kim Betz, Deputy 

Staff Director; Cole Felder, Deputy General Counsel; Dan Jarrell, 

Legislative Clerk; Erin McCracken, Communications Director; 

Jamie Fleet, Minority Staff Director; and Eddie Flaherty, Minority 

Chief Clerk. 

The CHAIRMAN. I now call to order the Committee on House Administration for today’s committee hearing. A quorum is present, so 

we may proceed. 

The meeting record will remain open for 5 legislative days so 

that Members may submit any materials that they wish to be included herein. 

There is one item on our docket today, Committee Resolution 115–9, a resolution to disburse $200,000 from the Committee’s reserve fund to the Foreign Affairs Committee. This disbursement is 

in response to a request the Committee received from the Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. The disbursement 

will provide resources for the operations to the Tom Lantos Human 

Rights Commission. 

I would now like to recognize my colleague and the Committee’s 

Ranking Member, Mr. Brady, for the purpose of providing an opening statement. 

[The statement of Chairman Harper follows:] 

Mr. BRADY. Mr. Chairman, I have consulted with the minority 

leadership of the Foreign Affairs Committee, and they are supportive of the request, and so am I. And I urge the Committee to 

pass this resolution. 

And I yield back the balance of my time. 

[The statement of Mr. Brady follows:] 

The CHAIRMAN. Thank you, Mr. Brady.

Does any other Member wish to be recognized for the purpose of 

an opening statement? 

Seeing none, I move the Committee adopt Committee Resolution 

115–9. The question is on the motion. All those in favor, signify by 

saying aye. 

Any opposed, nay. 

Seeing none, unanimously, in the opinion of the Chair, the ayes 

have it, and the motion is agreed to. Without objection, the motion 

to reconsider is laid upon the table. 

Does any Member wish to submit supplemental or minority 

views? 

Seeing none, for all the matters considered here today, I would 

ask unanimous consent that the staff be authorized to make technical and conforming changes, if necessary. Without objection, so 

ordered. 

That concludes today’s markup. Without objection, the markup is 

adjourned. 

[Whereupon, at 1:09 p.m., the committee was adjourned.]
