House Resolutions of Inquiry
Description:
The resolution of inquiry is a simple House resolution that seeks factual information from the executive branch. This report explains the history, procedure, specific uses of resolutions of inquiry, and notes recent increases in their usage. The examples in this report demonstrate that, historically, even when a resolution of inquiry is
reported adversely from a committee and tabled on the floor, it has frequently led to the release of a substantial amount of information from the Administration.
