                               RESOLUTION


 
 To authorize testimony and representation of a former employee of the 
      Senate in Sonja I. Anderson v. Kaiser Engineers Hanford Co.

Whereas in the case of Sonja I. Anderson v. Kaiser Engineers Hanford Co., 
        Numbered 94-ERA-14, pending in the United States Department of Labor, 
        counsel for the complainant has requested deposition testimony from 
        Robert Alvarez, a former employee of the Senate on the staff of the 
        Committee on Governmental Affairs;
Whereas pursuant to sections 703(a) and 704(a)(2) of the Ethics in Government 
        Act of 1978, sections 288b(a) and 288c(a)(2) of title 2, United States 
        Code, the Senate may direct its counsel to represent employees of the 
        Senate with respect to any subpoena, order, or request for testimony 
        relating to their official responsibilities;
Whereas by the privileges of the Senate of the United States and rule XI of the 
        Standing Rules of the Senate, no evidence under the control or in the 
        possession of the Senate can, by administrative or judicial process, be 
        taken from such control or possession but by permission of the Senate; 
        and
Whereas when it appears that evidence under the control or in the possession of 
        the Senate is needed for the promotion of justice, the Senate will take 
        such action as will promote the ends of justice consistent with the 
        privileges of the Senate: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That Robert Alvarez is authorized to testify in the case 
of Sonja I. Anderson v. Kaiser Engineers Hanford Co., and any related 
proceedings, except concerning matters for which a privilege should be 
asserted.
    Sec. 2. That the Senate Legal Counsel is authorized to represent 
Robert Alvarez in connection with his testimony in Sonja I. Anderson v. 
Kaiser Engineers Hanford Co.
