              Mr. Conaway, from the Committee on Ethics, 
                        submitted the following

                              R E P O R T

    In accordance with H. Res. 451, adopted on June 5, 2007, 
and extended in the 113th Congress by H. Res. 5, Section 4(e) 
and Rule 18(e)(2) of the Committee on Ethics (Committee), the 
Committee hereby submits the following Report to the House of 
Representatives:

                       I. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION

    On September 10, 2014, the Committee convened for the 
purpose of considering the arrest on September 4, 2014, of 
Representative Gwen Moore during a protest in West Milwaukee, 
Wisconsin, for disorderly conduct. Representative Moore was 
issued a citation and was released following her arrest. The 
matter is expected to be resolved with the payment of a fine, 
pending a non-mandatory court appearance on November 18, 2014.
    The Committee voted against empanelling an investigative 
subcommittee in this matter. The Committee considered the scope 
and nature of the conduct described above and determined that 
review by an investigative subcommittee is not required in this 
matter.

II. STATEMENT UNDER RULE XIII, CLAUSE 3(c) OF THE RULES OF THE HOUSE OF 
                            REPRESENTATIVES

    The Committee made no special oversight findings in this 
Report. No budget statement is submitted. No funding is 
authorized by any measure in this Report.
