Constituent Services Disclosure Act of 2015

Summary

Constituent Services Disclosure Act of 2015 This bill amends the House of Representatives Administrative Reform Technical Corrections Act to prohibit the availability of 20% of the Members' Representational Allowance to a Member's office unless it provides certain free assistance with respect to: passports; individual federal income tax returns; 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status applications; benefits under titles XVIII (Medicare), II (Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance), and XVI (Supplemental Security Income) of the Social Security Act; student loans; and veterans' benefits or other laws administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Each Member's office must make publicly available in print or on its congressional website all the constituent services it provides. It is the sense of Congress that private companies that provide the same or similar assistance to individuals as described in the House of Representatives Administrative Reform Technical Corrections Act (as amended by this Act) should disclose that such assistance could be provided free by the office of a Member of the House of Representatives.
