116th Congress

The U.S. House of Representatives (House) is committed to providing secure means of working from alternative work sites, such as telecommuting centers. A higher level of responsibility for information security lies with remote users because the employee works unobserved and the work environment falls outside the physical protection of a House facility.

Remote users must take and accept a higher level of responsibility for all Congressional electronic information and data accessed by them from outside the physical protection of the House network.
