On October 26, 2016 the 105th Congress adopted HRES 42, a resolution that establishes the minority party’s membership on selected House standing committees. The measure specifies the allocation of minority seats for each designated committee, thereby formalizing the partisan composition required for committee operations. The resolution implements the House’s procedural rules governing minority representation and does not amend substantive policy areas.
