The Senate Resolution introduced by Pittman on January 7, 2025, seeks to implement a comprehensive set of Ethical Conduct Rules for the 209th and 210th Regular Sessions (2025-2026). These rules establish clear definitions and guidelines regarding campaign activities, contributions, and the conduct of Senate employees. Key provisions include a prohibition on Senate employees engaging in campaign activities during work hours and using Senate resources for campaign purposes. The resolution also outlines the conditions under which employees may participate in campaign activities on their own time, ensuring that such participation is voluntary and not tied to their employment.

Furthermore, the resolution details a formal process for investigating potential violations of these ethical rules, which will be conducted by an independent third party. The findings will be reviewed by Senate leadership, who will make a unanimous decision regarding any violations and potential sanctions. Additionally, the resolution mandates annual filing of financial interest statements for Senators and certain employees, as well as annual training on ethical behavior. Any amendments to these rules will require approval from a majority of elected Senators and must go through the Rules Committee, reinforcing the commitment to transparency and accountability within the Senate.
