Figure 1. 118th Congress Senate Committee Funding Resolution: Funding Periods Source: Figure from CRS based on S.Res. 59 (118th Congress). Funding for the first two months of the 118th Congress (January and February 2023) was provided by S.Res. 70 (117th Congress), agreed to on February 24, 2021. On February 13, 2023, Senator Klobuchar, chair of the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, reported an original committee funding resolution.8 The Senate adopted by unanimous consent S.Res. 59, authorizing expenditures by Senate committees, on February 15, 2023. Division of Funds Between Majority and Minority The division of committee funds between the majority and minority is governed by Senate Rules and colloquies on the Senate floor between the majority and minority leaders and a Joint Leadership Letter inserted into the Congressional Record. Senate Rule XXVII states that each committee’s staff “should reflect the relative number of majority and minority members of committees,” that the “minority shall receive fair consideration in the appointment of staff,” and that there shall be “equitable treatment with respect to the fixing of salary rates, the assignment of facilities, and the accessibility of committee records.”9 In addition, a majority of the minority party members of a committee may request at least one-third of the personnel funds for hiring minority staff (after excluding funds for staff that perform administrative and clerical functions). 7 S.Res. 122 (106th Cong.). 8 The text of the committee funding resolution had been ordered favorably reported at a business meeting of the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration on February 13, 2023, https://www.rules.senate.gov/hearings/02/07/2023/business-meeting. 9 See U.S. Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, https://www.rules.senate.gov/. These sections date to the 1970s. For historical information, see Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970, P.L. 91-510, 84 Stat. 1149-1150, 1176; Congressional Record, Feb. 1, 1977, p. 2889, 2909; S.Res. 281 (96th Cong., agreed to March 11, 1980). Congressional Research Service 2 Senate Committee Funding Requests and Authorizations, 106th-118th Congresses The colloquies have been used since the 108th Congress.10 Beginning in the 112th Congress, the majority and minority leaders agreed to a new, standardized approach to the distribution of committee funding, which they also agreed should be adopted by future Congresses. The 2011 agreement from the joint leadership was discussed in the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration report (S.Rept. 112-9) to accompany the committee funding resolution (S.Res. 81, 112th Congress):11 During the 1990s, pursuant to Rule XXVII, most committees allocated their funding two-thirds for the majority and one-third for the minority. During the past decade, starting with the 107th Congress, biennial negotiations over the allocation ratios for committee funding produced Leadership guidance, which the Rules Committee used to develop committee budget guidelines. The 109th Congress Leadership colloquy of January 6, 2005 set a minimum for the minority of 40 percent of personnel funds after allocations for non-designated administrative and clerical staff. The minority leader stated in the colloquy that he hoped never in the future would it be any lower, no matter which party is in control of the Senate. In the 112th Congress, on February 3, 2011, the Leadership agreed on a new funding approach to be used in the 112th and their intention that it be used in future Congresses in place of biennial negotiations. That funding approach is based on the party division of the Senate, but recognizes the majority’s need for resources commensurate with its responsibilities in administering the committee. The Leadership agreed that 10 percent of the total majority and minority baseline salary amount, after allocations for non-designated administrative and clerical staff, would be set aside for the majority. The remaining 90 percent would be divided according to the party division of the Senate. For the 112th Congress, the party division for funding purposes is 53 to 47. Committee office space follows the same approach, with 10 percent of the total space set aside for the majority, and the remaining 90 percent divided according to the party division of the Senate. The Leadership colloquy further specified that regardless of the party division of the Senate, however, the minority share would never be less than 40 percent, and the majority would never exceed 60 percent including the 10 percent set aside for the majority. This approach provides greater stability to committees when Senate party ratios alter or the Senate majority changes from one party to another. On February 15, 2023, the majority and minority leaders again engaged in a “Joint Leadership Letter and Colloquy,” setting out agreed division for the 118th Congress. The agreement continued the division of funds based on party ratio, “including an additional ten percent (10%) from the majority and minority salary baseline to be allocated to the chair for administrative expenses.”12 In addition, the agreement stated that special reserves would “only be considered when submitted by a committee chairman and ranking member for unanticipated, nonrecurring needs. Such requests shall be granted only upon the approval of the chair and ranking member of the Committee on Rules and Administration.”13 The party division of the Senate at the beginning of the 118th Congress was 49 Republicans, 48 Democrats, and 3 Independents, who all caucus with the Democrats.14 10 Congressional Record, January 15, 2003, p.
