F. Official Residences

Congress must provide each Member with a uniform residence suitable for family habitation. The Member must use this residence when Congress is in session. It will include no fewer than three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a living space. The government shall cover maintenance, furnishings, and utilities. These residences ensure Members can perform their duties in the Capital without undue hardship, while preserving their home district living arrangements. Congress may prescribe by law detailed regulations governing these residences.
