HUMBLE Act

Bill 119 hr 2624 aims to make several changes to the way Congress operates. Firstly, it seeks to prevent former Members and elected officers of Congress from lobbying Congress after leaving office. This is intended to reduce the influence of former politicians on current lawmakers.

Additionally, the bill proposes to restrict the use of funds for official travel expenses of Members of Congress and legislative branch employees. Specifically, it would limit airline accommodations to coach class, in an effort to cut down on unnecessary spending.

Another key provision of the bill is the elimination of automatic pay adjustments for Members of Congress. This means that lawmakers would no longer receive automatic raises, and any changes to their salaries would have to be approved through the legislative process. Overall, the goal of Bill 119 hr 2624 is to increase transparency and accountability in Congress, by limiting the influence of former politicians, cutting down on unnecessary spending, and ensuring that lawmakers are not receiving automatic pay raises.
