        rights and protections in their workplaces;
            (2) the Senate has made substantial progress in ensuring

        Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Rehabilitation 
        Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and 
        the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993;
            (3) the Senate should expand upon the base of rights and 
        protections established under such Acts by extending fair 
        employment standards and safety and health provisions to 
        employees of Senate offices;
            (4) the extension of the rights and protections established 
        under such standards and provisions must be accomplished in a 
        manner consistent with fundamental constitutional principles 
        and the Senate's unique history, status, and function in the 
        United States system of representational democracy; and
            (5) the extension of the rights and protections provided by 
        this title affecting the members of the Capitol Police force

        assigned to either the House of Representatives or the Senate 
        are treated in a consistent manner.
