Text
Bill Intelligence

The bill aims to enhance the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995. It requires Members of Congress to reimburse the Treasury for settlements and awards related to employment discrimination. It also compels other employing offices to do the same for claims involving retaliation. The bill allows individuals filing claims to submit amended versions if their initial claims are deemed insufficient. Additionally, it permits the Office of Employee Advocacy to provide assistance to covered employees in civil actions. These changes apply to claims made on or after the bill's enactment.
