This resolution sets the Members' Representational Allowance (MRA) for each Member or Member-elect of the House of Representatives for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. For each Member, the MRA will equal the amount used for their district in fiscal year 2025, reduced by $100,000. The change cites the statute that establishes the MRA (2 U.S.C. 5341). The resolution was introduced on March 3, 2025, by Representative Aaron Bean and referred to the House Committee on House Administration.
If you contact or use services from your Representative's office, the office's annual MRA for FY2026 and FY2027 will be $100,000 less than the FY2025 amount for that district. The resolution text does not describe how offices must change operations or services because of the reduction.
The resolution reduces each Member's MRA by a fixed $100,000 for FY2026 and FY2027 compared with FY2025 levels. No publicly available information in the bill text gives total dollar savings, cost estimates, or budgetary analyses.
