Office Of Congressional Ethics

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Office of Congressional Ethics, established by the U.S. House of Representatives, is an independent, non-partisan entity charged with reviewing allegations of misconduct against members of the House of Representatives and their staff and, when appropriate, referring matters to the United States House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct (commonly referred to as the Ethics Committee). The OCE was created by House Resolution 895 of the 110th Congress in March 2008. Governed by an eight-person Board of Directors, Members of the OCE Board are private citizens and cannot serve as members of Congress or work for the federal government.
