                               RESOLUTION


 
 To authorize testimony and to authorize representation by the Senate 
                             Legal Counsel.

Whereas, in the case of United States v. Armand D'Amato, Cr. No. 92-00274, 
        pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of 
        New York, the United States seeks the trial testimony of Senate 
        employees, Claudia Breggia and Shirley Tucker;
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;
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; and
Whereas, pursuant to sections 703(a) and 704(a)(2) of the Ethics in Government 
        Act of 1978, 2 U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 288b(a) and 288c(a)(2), the Senate may 
        direct its counsel to represent employees of the Senate with respect to 
        requests for testimony made to them in their official capacities: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That Claudia Breggia and Shirley Tucker are authorized to 
testify in United States v. Armand D'Amato, Cr. No. 92-00274 (E.D. 
N.Y.), except concerning matters for which a privilege should be 
asserted.
    Sec. 2. The Senate Legal Counsel is authorized to represent Claudia 
Breggia and Shirley Tucker in connection with the testimony authorized 
by section 1 of this resolution.

                                 <all>
