S.Res. 671 is a proposed Senate resolution that would prohibit the use of federal funds for official travel by U.S. Senators during periods when the federal government is shut down. The resolution specifically targets the use of taxpayer money for travel expenses incurred by Senators while government operations are suspended due to a lapse in appropriations. It would apply only to official Senate travel and would not affect the personal travel or private funds of Senators. This resolution does not change the underlying laws regarding government shutdowns, nor does it address the salaries or other compensation of Senators or federal employees. It is limited to the specific issue of official travel funding during a shutdown.
