 1                  HOUSE RESOLUTION 5
 2                  BY COMMITTEE ON ETHICS
 3  A Resolution relating to the House code of ethics.
 4     Be It Resolved By The House Of Representatives,
 5  That the House code of ethics be amended to read as
 6  follows:
 7                   HOUSE CODE OF ETHICS
 8     PREAMBLE.  Every legislator and legislative
 9  employee has a duty to uphold the integrity and honor
10  of the general assembly, to encourage respect for the
11  law and for the general assembly, and to observe the
12  house code of ethics.  The members and employees of
13  the house have a responsibility to conduct themselves
14  so as to reflect credit on the general assembly, and
15  to inspire the confidence, respect, and trust of the
16  public.  The following rules are adopted pursuant to
17  chapter 68B of the Code, to assist the members and
18  employees in the conduct of their activities:
19     1.  DEFINITIONS.  The definitions of terms provided
20  in chapter 68B of the Code apply to the use of those
21  terms in these rules.
22     2.  ECONOMIC INTEREST OF MEMBER OR EMPLOYEE OF
23  HOUSE.
24     a.  Economic or investment opportunity.  A member
25  or employee of the house shall not solicit or accept
26  economic or investment opportunity under circumstances
27  where the member or employee knows, or should know,

28  that the opportunity is being afforded with the intent
29  to influence the member's or employee's conduct in the
30  performance of official duties.  If a member or
Page 2
 1  employee of the house learns that an economic or
 2  investment opportunity previously accepted was offered
 3  with the intent of influencing the member's or
 4  employee's conduct in the performance of the official
 5  duties, the member or employee shall take steps to
 6  divest that member or employee of that investment or
 7  economic opportunity, and shall report the matter in
 8  writing to the chairperson of the house ethics
 9  committee.
10     b.  Excessive charges for services, goods, or
11  property interests.  A member or employee of the house
12  shall not charge to or accept from a person known to
13  have a legislative interest, a price, fee,
14  compensation, or other consideration for the sale or
15  lease of any property or the furnishing of services
16  which is in excess of that which the member or
17  employee would ordinarily charge another person.
18     c.  Use of confidential information.  A member or
19  employee of the house, in order to further the
20  member's or employee's own economic interests, or
21  those of any other person, shall not disclose or use
22  confidential information acquired in the course of the
23  member's or employee's official duties.  For the
24  purpose of this rule, information disclosed in open
25  session at a public meeting under chapter 21 of the
26  Code and information that is a public record under
27  chapter 22 of the Code is not confidential
28  information.
29     d.  Employment.  A member or employee of the house
30  shall not accept employment, either directly or
Page 3
 1  indirectly, from a political action committee.  A
 2  member of the house shall not act as a paid lobbyist
 3  for any organization.  However, this paragraph shall
 4  not prohibit a member or employee of the house from
 5  working for a candidate's committee, a political
 6  party's action committee, or a political action
 7  committee which does not support or oppose a candidate
 8  for public office in this state or a ballot issue in
 9  this state and which is not interested in issues
10  before the general assembly.
11     For the purpose of this rule, a political action
12  committee means a committee, but not a candidate's
13  committee, which accepts contributions, makes

14  expenditures, or incurs indebtedness in the aggregate
15  of more than five hundred dollars in any one calendar
16  year for the purpose of supporting or opposing a
17  candidate for public office or a ballot issue or for
18  the purpose of influencing legislative action.
19     e.  A member or employee of the house shall not
20  solicit employment on behalf of the member or
21  employee, or on behalf of another legislator or
22  employee, as a lobbyist while the general assembly is
23  in session.
24     f.  Certain goods or services.  A member or
25  employee of the house shall not solicit or obtain
26  goods or services from another person under
27  circumstances where the member or employee knows or
28  should know that the goods or services are being
29  offered or sold with the intent to influence the
30  member's or employee's conduct in the performance of
Page 4
 1  official duties.  If a member or employee of the house
 2  is afforded goods or services by another person at a
 3  price that is not available to other members or
 4  classes of members of the general public or is
 5  afforded goods or services that are not available to
 6  other members or classes of members of the general
 7  public by another person where the member or employee
 8  knows or should know that the other person intends to
 9  influence the member's or employee's official conduct,
10  the member or employee shall not take or purchase the
11  goods or services.
12     3.  APPEARANCE BEFORE STATE AGENCY.  A member or
13  employee of the house may appear before a state agency
14  in any representation case but shall not act as a
15  lobbyist with respect to the passage, defeat,
16  approval, veto, or modification of any legislation,
17  rule, or executive order.  Whenever a member or
18  employee of the house appears before a state agency,
19  the member or employee shall carefully avoid all
20  conduct which might in any way lead members of the
21  general public to conclude that the member or employee
22  is using the member's or employee's official position
23  to further the member's or employee's professional
24  success or personal financial interest.
25     4.  CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.  In order for the
26  general assembly to function effectively, members of
27  the house may be required to vote on bills and
28  participate in committee work which will affect their
29  employment and other areas in which they may have a
30  monetary interest.  Action on bills and committee work
Page 5

 1  which furthers a member's specific employment,
 2  specific investment, or other specific interest, as
 3  opposed to the interests of the public in general or
 4  the interests of a profession, trade, business, or
 5  other class of persons, shall be avoided.  In making a
 6  decision relative to a member's activity on particular
 7  bills or in committee work, the following factors
 8  should be considered:
 9     a.  Whether a substantial threat to the member's
10  independence of judgment has been created by the
11  conflict situation.
12     b.  The effect of the member's participation on
13  public confidence in the integrity of the general
14  assembly.
15     c.  Whether the member's participation is likely to
16  have any significant effect on the disposition of the
17  matter.
18     d.  The need for the member's particular
19  contribution, such as special knowledge of the subject
20  matter, to the effective functioning of the general
21  assembly.
22     If a member decides not to participate in committee
23  work or to abstain from voting because of a possible
24  conflict of interest, the member should disclose this
25  fact to the legislative body.  The member shall not
26  vote on any question in which the member has an
27  economic interest that is distinguishable from the
28  interests of the general public or a substantial class
29  of persons.
30     5.  STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS.  Members and employees
Page 6
 1  of the house shall comply with the requirements
 2  contained in chapters 68B (Conflicts of Interest of
 3  Public Officers and Employees), 721 (Official
 4  Misconduct), and 722 (Bribery and Corruption), and
 5  sections 2.18 (Contempt) and 711.4 (Extortion) of the
 6  Code.
 7     6.  CHARGE ACCOUNTS.  Members and employees of the
 8  house shall not charge any amount or item to a charge
 9  account to be paid for by a lobbyist or any client of
10  a lobbyist.
11     7.  TRAVEL EXPENSES.  A member or employee of the
12  house shall not charge to the state of Iowa amounts
13  for travel and expenses unless the member or employee
14  actually has incurred those mileage and expense costs.
15  Members or employees shall not file the vouchers for
16  weekly mileage reimbursement required by section 2.10,
17  subsection 1 of the Code, unless the travel expense
18  was actually incurred.

19     A member or employee of the house shall not file a
20  claim for per diem compensation for a meeting of an
21  interim study committee or a visitation committee
22  unless the member or employee attended the meeting.
23  However, the speaker may waive this provision and
24  allow a claim to be filed if the member or employee
25  attempted to attend the meeting but was unable to do
26  so because of circumstances beyond the member's or
27  employee's control.
28     8.  GIFTS ACCEPTED OR RECEIVED.  Members and

11     11.  SEXUAL HARASSMENT.  Members and employees of
12  the house shall not engage in conduct which
13  constitutes sexual harassment as defined in section
14  19B.12 of the Code or pursuant to the sexual
15  harassment policy adopted by the house committee on
16  administration and rules.
17     12.  COMPLAINTS.
18     a.  Filing of complaint.  Complaints may be filed
19  by any person believing that a member or employee of
20  the house, a lobbyist, or a client of a lobbyist is
21  guilty of a violation of the house code of ethics, the
22  house rules governing lobbyists, or chapter 68B of the
23  Code.
24     b.  Complaints by committee.  The ethics committee
25  may initiate a complaint on its own motion.  Committee
26  complaints may be initiated by the committee as a
27  result of a committee investigation or as a result of
28  receipt of any complaint or other information that
29  does not meet the requirements of these rules
30  regarding the form of a complaint but that contains
Page 8
 1  allegations that would form the basis for a valid
 2  complaint.
 3     c.  Form and contents of complaint.  A complaint
 4  shall be in writing.

 5     Complaint forms shall be available from the chief
 6  clerk of the house, but a complaint shall not be
 7  rejected for failure to use the approved form if it
 8  complies with the requirements of these rules.  The
 9  complaint shall contain a certification made by the
10  complainant, under penalty of perjury, that the facts
11  stated in the complaint are true to the best of the
12  complainant's knowledge.
13     To be valid, a complaint shall allege all of the
14  following:
15     (1)  Facts, including the approximate date and
16  location of any event, incident, or transaction that,
17  if true, establish a violation of a provision of
18  chapter 68B of the Code, the house code of ethics, or
19  house rules governing lobbyists for which penalties or
20  other remedies are provided.
21     (2)  That the conduct providing the basis for the
22  complaint occurred within three years of the filing of
23  the complaint.
24     (3)  That the party charged with a violation is a
25  member or employee of the house, a lobbyist, or a
26  client of a lobbyist.
27     d.  Confidentiality of complaint.  The filing of
28  the complaint and the contents of the complaint shall
29  be confidential until the time that the committee
30  meets to determine whether the complaint is valid,
Page 9
 1  unless either the complainant or the party charged in
 2  the complaint makes the existence of, or the
 3  information contained in, the complaint public.
 4  However, if either the complainant or party alleged to
 5  have committed the violation requests that the meeting
 6  to determine whether the complaint is valid be a
 7  closed meeting and the filing of the complaint or the
 8  contents of the complaint have not been disclosed, the
 9  meeting shall be closed.
10     e.  Notice of complaint.  Upon receipt of the
11  complaint, the chief clerk of the house shall promptly
12  notify the chairperson and ranking member of the
13  ethics committee that a complaint has been filed and
14  provide both the chairperson and the ranking member
15  with copies of the complaint and any supporting
16  information.  Within two working days, the chief clerk
17  shall send notice, either by personal delivery or by
18  certified mail, return receipt requested, to the
19  person or persons alleged to have committed the
20  violation, along with a copy of the complaint and any
21  supporting information.  The notice to the accused
22  person shall contain a request that the person submit
23  a written response to the complaint within ten working

24  days of the date that the notice was sent by the chief
25  clerk.  At the request of the accused person, the
26  committee may extend the time for the response, not to
27  exceed ten additional calendar days.
28     f.  Hearing regarding validity of complaint.  The
29  committee chairperson and the ranking member shall
30  review the complaint and supporting information to
Page 10
 1  determine whether the complaint meets the requirements
 2  as to form.  If the complaint is deficient as to form,
 3  the complaint shall be returned to the complainant
 4  with instructions indicating the deficiency unless the
 5  committee decides to proceed on its own motion.  If
 6  the complaint is in writing and contains the
 7  appropriate certification, as soon as practicable, the
 8  chairperson shall call a meeting of the committee to
 9  review the complaint to determine whether the
10  complaint meets the requirements for validity and
11  whether the committee should request that the chief
12  justice of the supreme court appoint an independent
13  special counsel to conduct an investigation to
14  determine whether probable cause exists to believe
15  that a violation of the house code of ethics, house
16  rules governing lobbyists, or chapter 68B of the Code,
17  has occurred.
18     If the committee finds that a complaint does not
19  meet the content requirements for a valid complaint,
20  the committee shall dismiss the complaint and notify
21  both the complainant and the party alleged to have
22  committed the violation of the dismissal and the
23  reasons for dismissal.  A dismissal for failure to
24  meet the formal requirements for the filing of a
25  complaint shall be without prejudice and the
26  complainant may refile the complaint at any time
27  within three years of the date that the alleged
28  violation took place.  If the dismissal is based upon
29  a failure to allege facts and circumstances necessary
30  for a valid complaint, the dismissal shall be with
Page 11
 1  prejudice and the party shall not be permitted to file
 2  a complaint based upon the same facts and
 3  circumstances.
 4     g.  Request for appointment of independent special
 5  counsel.  If, after review of the complaint and any
 6  response made by the party alleged to have committed
 7  the violation, the committee determines that the
 8  complaint meets the requirements for form and content,
 9  the committee shall request that the chief justice of

10  the supreme court appoint independent special counsel
11  to investigate the matter and determine whether
12  probable cause exists to believe that a violation of
13  chapter 68B of the Code, the house code of ethics, or
14  the house rules governing lobbyists has occurred.
15     h.  Receipt of report of independent special
16  counsel.  The report from independent special counsel
17  regarding probable cause to proceed on a complaint
18  shall be filed with the chief clerk of the house.
19  Upon receipt of the report of the independent special
20  counsel, the chief clerk shall notify the chairperson
21  of the filing of the report and shall send copies of
22  the report to the members of the ethics committee.  As
23  soon as practicable after the filing of the report,
24  the chairperson shall schedule a public meeting for
25  review of the report.  The purpose of the public
26  meeting shall be to determine whether the complaint
27  should be dismissed, whether a formal hearing should
28  be held on the complaint, or whether other committee
29  action is appropriate.  The complainant and the person
30  alleged to have committed the violation shall be given
Page 12
 1  notice of the public meeting, shall have the right to
 2  be present at the public meeting, and may, at the
 3  discretion of the committee, present testimony in
 4  support of or against the recommendations contained in
 5  the report.
 6     If the committee determines that the matter should
 7  be dismissed, the committee shall cause an order to be
 8  entered dismissing the matter and notice of the
 9  dismissal shall be given to the complainant and the
10  party alleged to have committed the violation.  If the
11  committee determines that the complaint should be
12  scheduled for formal hearing, the committee shall
13  issue a charging statement which contains the charges
14  and supporting facts that are to be set for formal
15  hearing and notice shall be sent to the complainant
16  and the accused person.
17     The notice shall include a statement of the nature
18  of the charge or charges, a statement of the time and
19  place of hearing, a short and plain statement of the
20  facts asserted, and a statement of the rights of the
21  accused person at the hearing.
22     i.  Formal hearing.  Formal hearings shall be
23  public and conducted in the manner provided in section
24  68B.31, subsection 8 of the Code.  At a formal hearing
25  the accused shall have the right to be present and to
26  be heard in person and by counsel, to cross-examine
27  witnesses, and to present evidence.  Members of the
28  committee shall also have the right to question

29  witnesses.
30     Evidence at the formal hearing shall be received in
Page 13
 1  accordance with rules and procedures applicable to
 2  contested cases under chapter 17A of the Code.
 3     The committee chairperson, or the vice chairperson
 4  or ranking member in the absence of the chairperson,
 5  shall preside at the formal hearing and shall rule on
 6  the admissibility of any evidence received.  The
 7  ruling of the chairperson may be overturned by a
 8  majority vote of the committee.  Independent special
 9  counsel shall present the evidence in support of the
10  charge or charges.  The burden shall be on the
11  independent special counsel to prove the charge or
12  charges by a preponderance of clear and convincing
13  evidence.  Upon completion of the formal hearing, the
14  committee shall adopt written findings of fact and
15  conclusions concerning the merits of the charges and
16  make its report and recommendation to the house.
17     j.  Recommendations by the committee.  The
18  committee shall recommend to the house that the
19  complaint be dismissed, or that one or more of the
20  following be imposed:
21     (1)  That the member or employee of the house or
22  lobbyist or client of a lobbyist be censured or
23  reprimanded, and the recommended appropriate form of
24  censure or reprimand be used.
25     (2)  That the member of the house be suspended or
26  expelled from membership in the house and required to
27  forfeit the member's salary for that period, the
28  employee of the house be suspended or dismissed from
29  employment, or that the lobbyist's or lobbyist's
30  client's lobbying privileges be suspended.
