The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“FEDERAL CIVILIAN WORKFORCE PAY RAISE FAIRNESS ACT OF 2019” mentioning the U.S. Dept. of Justice was published in the House of Representatives section on pages H1313-H1317 on Jan. 30, 2019.
The Department is one of the oldest in the US, focused primarily on law enforcement and the federal prison system. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, detailed wasteful expenses such as $16 muffins at conferences and board meetings.
The publication is reproduced in full below:

Mr. HIGGINS of Louisiana changed his vote from ``aye'' to ``no.''
Messrs. CLYBURN, COOK, Ms. FUDGE, Messrs. CARSON of Indiana, VISCLOSKY, and SMITH of New Jersey changed their vote from ``no'' to

So the amendment was agreed to.
The result of the vote was announced as above recorded.
The CHAIR. There being no further amendments under the rule, the Committee rises.
Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Mr. Cardenas) having assumed the chair, Mr. Sablan, Chair of the Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union, reported that that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R. 790) to provide for a pay increase in 2019 for certain civilian employees of the Federal Government, and for other purposes, and, pursuant to House Resolution 87, he reported the bill, as amended by that resolution, back to the House with sundry further amendments adopted in the Committee of the Whole.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is ordered.
Is a separate vote demanded on any further amendment reported from the Committee of the Whole? If not, the Chair will put them en gros.
The amendments were agreed to.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the engrossment and third reading of the bill.
The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was read the third time.
Motion to Recommit
Mrs. BROOKS of Indiana. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentlewoman opposed to the bill?
Mrs. BROOKS of Indiana. I am, Mr. Speaker, in its present form.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to recommit.
The Clerk read as follows:
Mrs. Brooks of Indiana moves to recommit the bill H.R. 790 to the Committee on Oversight and Reform with instructions to report the same back to the House forthwith with the following amendment:
At the end of the bill, add the following:
SEC. 3. PROHIBITION ON PAY ADJUSTMENT FOR EMPLOYEES
DISCIPLINED FOR SEXUAL MISCONDUCT.
During calendar year 2019, no increase in pay as authorized under this Act may be provided to any Federal employee who has been disciplined for sexual misconduct under chapter 75 of title 5, United States Code, or any other provision of law.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Indiana is recognized for 5 minutes in support of her motion.
Mrs. BROOKS of Indiana. Mr. Speaker, my motion to recommit amends the Democratic bill by prohibiting taxpayer dollars from being used to give raises to Federal employees who have been disciplined for sexual misconduct. Without this change, Federal employees who have engaged in sexual misconduct in the workplace would be rewarded for their bad actions.
The Republican motion to recommit amends the bill and reports it back forthwith with an amendment. If it passes, the Republican motion to recommit will allow an immediate vote on final passage of the bill.
The underlying premise of the Democratic bill is that our Federal civilian workforce should be treated the same as members of our armed services, who received a 2.6 percent pay raise in last year's NDAA.
The Federal Government is blessed with amazing Federal employees. As a former United States attorney, I led an office of those amazing Federal employees. I worked with countless other dedicated Federal employees.
Our dedicated civil servants work day in and day out to protect and serve the American public. We are most grateful for their service.
The vast majority of Federal employees are hardworking. They don't engage in conduct unbefitting their civil service. However, those who have been disciplined for sexual misconduct should not be rewarded with a 2.6 percent pay increase.
The bill before the House today treats every Federal employee the same. Good, bad, competent, or not, they all get a pay raise on top of automatic step increases and promotions.
Earlier today, my colleagues have asked: Doesn't everyone deserve a pay raise? The answer is no. A broken disciplinary process in our Federal agencies make it nearly impossible to fire anyone. This Democratic bill is nothing short of a handout to individuals who engage in sexual misconduct in the workplace, and that is wrong.
How can we reward anyone who harms Federal employees in this manner? How can we reward people who abuse the public's trust in this way?
Let me give you a few past examples.
A 2018 PBS report included interviews with 34 current and former female U.S. Forest Service employees who alleged discrimination, harassment, and sexual assault at the agency. Do these employees who perpetrated this type of behavior deserve automatic raises? No.
In 2017, an NBC affiliate identified almost 100 cases of Federal employees viewing pornography on government computers. Should these employees be rewarded for this behavior with automatic pay raises? No.
In 2015, DOJ's Office of Inspector General found that DEA agents participated in sex parties in Colombia involving strippers and prostitutes paid for by drug cartels. Does this type of conduct warrant automatic pay raises? I don't think so.
A recent study--and this is horrible--shows that sexual harassment is commonplace in Federal offices. One in five women have experienced harassment in the workplace, and nearly 9 percent of male employees report the same. It took 7 years for a former trial lawyer from the Justice Department to win a ruling from the EEOC confirming she was harassed by two male supervisors.
In 2018, five ICE officials told The Washington Post the agency hadn't yet responded to sexual harassment claims they filed more than a year ago against a manager who they said pressured them to view nude photos.
Our disciplinary process is confidential and murky. It varies agency by agency. We don't know how many employees have been disciplined for sexual misconduct and still remain on the job. We have serious faults we must address before we give across-the-board pay raises.
During consideration of this bill in Rules, there was bipartisan sentiment to look at longstanding issues that face our civil servants. Retention, private-sector wage comparison, and millennial recruitment were some of those issues. But this was a hastily drafted bill, and this is not how the process should work.
{time} 1345
The American people deserve a Federal workforce with high standards for appropriate conduct. Federal employees should feel safe and protected doing the people's business.
Mr. Speaker, we have problems in our Federal workforce that we must deal with before we give across-the-board pay raises.
The Republican motion to recommit protects due process rights of all Federal employees by ensuring that only those substantiated claims for which an employee has been disciplined will result in an employee being ineligible for a pay raise.
It is inexcusable that the Democrat bill, as drafted, would treat victims of sexual harassment the same as the perpetrators who may still be drawing Federal paychecks. Taxpayer dollars should not be used to give a pay raise to these bad actors.
I urge my colleagues to vote for this motion to recommit; and if it fails, I urge my colleagues to vote against this flawed bill.
Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
Mr. CONNOLLY. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to the slander we have just heard.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Virginia is recognized for 5 minutes.
Mr. CONNOLLY. Mr. Speaker, I have rarely heard such cynicism on the floor of the House of Representatives. Oh, no. My friends on the other side are right to kind of cabal because there is so much cynicism; but this one takes the cake.
We are here to honor the Federal workforce, not slander them with insinuation.
To listen to the gentlewoman from Indiana, one might infer that the Federal Government is riddled with people who are guilty of all kinds of nasty, near crimes and offenses, and should not be rewarded for it.
I wonder if we would use the same standard ourselves here in the House of Representatives. How many in the last Congress, especially on a particular side of the aisle, have resigned over sexual harassment charges? And that wasn't insinuation, that was real. So let's not have a double standard.
And by the way, I say to my friends, especially on this side of the aisle, let us not be distracted by what is really going on.
We are simply trying, after the worst shutdown in American history, to say to our own employees, 2.1 million: ``You are valued. You are respected.''
To actually vote for this is not only to say the opposite and deny them a simple cost of living increase that we have already given the military; it is, in fact, to say: By the way, we buy into this cynicism. We think you are riddled with guilt by association and insinuation.
So we have an opportunity, in defeating this MTR, one of the most cynical I have ever heard, to actually make a positive statement to our Federal employees.
Stand up and be heard. Say ``no'' to shutdowns. Say ``yes'' to our Federal employees, and restore their sense of respect with our dignity.
Defeat this MTR.
Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is ordered on the motion to recommit.
There was no objection.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the noes appeared to have it.
Mrs. BROOKS of Indiana. Mr. Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
The yeas and nays were ordered.
The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 5-
minute vote on the motion to recommit will be followed by 5-minute votes on:
Passage of the bill, if ordered;
The motion to suspend the rules and agree to H. Res. 79; and
Agreeing to the Speaker's approval of the Journal, if ordered.
The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 206, nays 216, not voting 10, as follows:
