Does this right apply to me?
You are covered by this provision of the CAA if you are an employee of one of the following offices or one of its subunits:
- The House of Representatives
- The Senate
- The Capitol Guide Service
- The Capitol Police
- The Congressional Budget Office
- The General Accounting Office (GAO)*
- The Library of Congress*
- The Office of the Architect of the Capitol
- The Office of the Attending Physician
- The Office of Compliance
* Because of differing legal interpretations, it remains uncertain whether employees of the GAO and the Library of Congress have the statutory right to use the administrative and judicial procedures provided under this provision of the CAA. The Office of Compliance will counsel any employee who initiates proceedings that a question has been raised as to the Office of Compliance’s and the court’s jurisdiction under the CAA and that the employee may wish to preserve his or her rights under any other procedural options.
If you are unclear about this or need more details, please contact the Office of Compliance.
