                               RESOLUTION


 
 To authorize the production of records by the Secretary of the Senate 
                    and the Senate Sergeant at Arms.

Whereas, the Secretary of the Senate and the Senate Sergeant at Arms have 
        received subpoenas for Senate personnel records from the Department of 
        Homeland Security for use as evidence in a pending administrative 
        investigation and adjudication;
Whereas, by the privileges of the Senate of the United States and Rule XI of the 
        Standing Rules of the Senate, no evidence under the control or in the 
        possession of the Senate can, by administrative or judicial process, be 
        taken from such control or possession but by permission of the Senate;
Whereas, when it appears that evidence under the control or in the possession of 
        the Senate is needed for the promotion of justice, the Senate will take 
        such action as will promote the ends of justice consistent with the 
        privileges of the Senate: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Secretary of the Senate and the Senate Sergeant 
at Arms are authorized to provide to the Department of Homeland 
Security records sought, respectively, by the subpoenas issued to them.
