Whereas on February 2, 2014, President Barack Obama 
stated publicly that there was ‘‘not even a smidgen of 
corruption’’ in connection with the IRS targeting activity; 
Whereas on April 16, 2014, electronic mail communications 
between the Department of Justice and the IRS were re-
leased showing that the Department of Justice considered 
prosecuting conservative nonprofit groups for engaging in 
political activity that is legal under Federal law, which 
damaged the integrity of the Department and under-
mined its investigation; and 
Whereas the Code of Federal Regulations requires the Attor-
ney General to appoint a Special Counsel when he or she 
determines— 
(1) that criminal investigation of a person or matter 
is warranted, 
(2) that investigation or prosecution of that person 
or matter by a United States Attorney’s Office or liti-

Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Represent-

(1) the statements and actions of the IRS, the De-

(b) EXCEPTIONS.—Under the revisions promulgated 
by the Committee on House Administration under sub-
section (a), a Members’ Representational Allowance may 
be used for the payment of the costs of first-class airline 
accommodations for domestic travel if the Member whose 
Allowance will be used for such payment certifies in writ-

(1) The use of first-class accommodations is 
necessary to accommodate a medical disability or 
other special need, as demonstrated by such docu-
mentation as the Committee may require. 
(2) No accommodations other than first-class 
accommodations are reasonably available given the 
timing of the travel, but only if the travel is urgent 
and the purpose of the travel may not be carried out 
on alternative dates. 
(3) The use of first-class accommodations is 
necessary because of exceptional security cir-
cumstances or other exceptional circumstances. 
(4) The use of first-class accommodations will 
result in an overall cost savings by avoiding addi-
tional subsistence costs, overtime, or lost productive 
time while awaiting coach-class accommodations.
