The Continuing Resolution (CR) to continue government operations until the new Budget is officially adopted, contains a Section which would make Congressional E-mails off-limits to LEGAL PROCESS. Think "January 6 Committee . . . Crimes."
Within the CR is a section that allows them to "quash or modify any legal process...if compliance with the legal process would require the disclosure of House data...
"House data = "any electronic mail or other electronic or data communication"
They're also applying this section to any pending matters.
Basically if somebody was trying to subpoena emails of a member of congress because of a potential crime or something, this would allow them to quash such a subpoena.
So it appears, on its surface, that Congress is trying to insulate themselves from LEGAL PROCESS that could prove they've committed crimes, by making all "House Data" beyond a court subpoena; even a Grand Jury Subpoena in a criminal matter!
Why is this included in a spending bill? Why are they trying to make this a thing at all?
WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?
Whoever had this put into the CR is a very powerful person. The CR is a "must-pass" Bill otherwise the government shuts down for lack of approved funding. Who is it that's trying to hide what they did via email?
Pelosi? The Whole January 6 Select Committee?
