Summary

Amends the Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 1991 to revise the formula for the official mail allowance (thus, reducing the amount allowed) for Members of the House of Representatives. Declares that it is the intent of the Congress that a Member or Member-elect (other than a Senator or Senator-elect) may not mail a congressional newsletter as franked mail. Requires unobligated funds remaining in a Member's official mail allowance at the end of a congressional session to be applied toward reducing the Federal budget deficit.
