H. Res. 411

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                         June 27, 2017.
Whereas on June 14, 2017, an armed gunman opened fire at a practice for the 
        annual Congressional Baseball Game for Charity, wounding five 
        individuals;
Whereas Members of the House are understandably concerned about the security of 
        their staff and the constituents they serve, as well as their personal 
        security;
Whereas the Members' Representational Allowance (MRA) is available for ordinary 
        and necessary expenses associated with security measures; and
Whereas heightened security concerns necessitate an adjustment in the MRA to 
        provide Members with additional resources: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That pursuant to section 1(b) of House Resolution 1372, Ninety-
fourth Congress, agreed to July 1, 1976, as enacted into permanent law by 
section 101 of the Legislative Branch Appropriation Act, 1977 (2 U.S.C. 4314), 
the Members' Representational Allowance applicable as of the date of the 
adoption of this resolution for each Member of the House of Representatives 
(including the Delegates and Resident Commissioner to the Congress) is increased 
by $25,000, to be available through January 2, 2018.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
