C.2(a). Oath of Office

The oath of office in both chambers is the same:

“I, (full legal name), solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will uphold the Rights of the Sovereign People of the United States, who have entrusted me with this office and delegated to me the various powers that go with it. To that end, I will do my best to faithfully execute the National Charter of the United States and uphold its laws.”

Each Chamber will elect its leadership following its rules. Upon electing their leadership, the respective leaders will assign committees and chairs for those committees and will appoint or extend the appointments of the various support offices.
