In paragraphs (1) and (18)(B), the words “Committee on Ethics of the House of Representatives” are substituted for “Committee on Standards of Official Conduct of the House of Representatives” because of House Resolution No. 5, 112th Congress, Jan. 5, 2011.
In paragraph (6), the words “The term ‘honoraria’ means the plural of ‘honorarium’ as defined in section 13141 of this title” are substituted for “the term ‘honoraria’ has the meaning given such term in section 505 of this Act” for clarity. In the source law, the plural form “honoraria” is defined in section 109 of the Ethics in Government Act of 1978, but the singular form “honorarium” is defined in section 505 of the Act.
