SEC. 304. INVESTIGATIONS AND INTERACTION WITH THE SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE ON ETHICS.
(a) Initiation of Enforcement Matters.--
(1) IN GENERAL.--An investigation may be initiated by the filing of a complaint with the Office by a Member of Congress or an outside complainant, or by the Office on its own initiative, based on any information in its possession. The Director shall not accept a complaint concerning a Member of Congress within 60 days of an election involving such Member.
(2) FILED COMPLAINT.--
(A) TIMING.--In the case of a complaint that is filed, the Director shall within 30 days make an initial determination as to whether the complaint should be dismissed or whether there are sufficient grounds to conduct an investigation. The subject of the complaint shall be provided by the Director with an opportunity during the 30-day period to challenge the complaint.
(B) DISMISSAL.--The Director may dismiss a complaint if the Director determines--
(i) the complaint fails to state a violation;
(ii) there is a lack of credible evidence of a violation; or
(iii) the violation is inadvertent, technical, or otherwise of a de minimis nature.
(C) REFERRAL.--In any case where the Director decides to dismiss a complaint, the Director may refer the case to the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate under paragraph (3) to determine if the complaint is frivolous.
(3) FRIVOLOUS COMPLAINTS.--If the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate determines that a complaint is frivolous, the committee may notify the Director not to accept any future complaint filed by that same person and the complainant may be required to pay for the costs of the Office resulting from such complaint. The Director may refer the matter to the Department of Justice to collect such costs.
(4) PRELIMINARY DETERMINATION.--For any investigation conducted by the Office at its own initiative, the Director shall make a preliminary determination of whether there are sufficient grounds to conduct an investigation.

(2) AUTHORITY.--As part of an investigation, the Director may--
(A) administer oaths;
(B) issue subpoenas;
(C) compel the attendance of witnesses and the production of papers, books, accounts, documents, and testimony; and
(D) himself, or by delegation to Office staff, take the deposition of witnesses.
(3) REFUSAL TO OBEY.--If a person disobeys or refuses to comply with a subpoena, or if a witness refuses to testify to a matter, he may be held in contempt of Congress.
(4) ENFORCEMENT.--If the Director determines that the Director is limited in the Director's ability to obtain documents, testimony, and other information needed as part of an investigation because of potential constitutional, statutory, or rules restrictions, or due to lack of compliance, the Director may refer the matter to the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate for consideration and appropriate action by the committee. The committee shall promptly act on a request under this paragraph.
(c) Presentation of Case to Senate Select Committee on Ethics.--
(1) NOTICE TO COMMITTEES.--If the Director determines, upon conclusion of an investigation, that probable cause exists that an ethics violation has occurred, the Director shall notify the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate of this determination.

(C) the vote of each member of the committee on such roll-call vote is included in the report.
(3) DETERMINATION AND RULING.--
(A) REFERRAL.--If the Director determines there is probable cause that an ethics violation has occurred and the Director's determination is not overruled, the Director shall present the case and evidence to the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate to hear and make a determination pursuant to its rules.
(B) FINAL DECISION.--The Select Committee on Ethics shall vote upon whether the individual who is the subject of the investigation has violated any rules or other standards of conduct applicable to that individual in his official capacity. Such votes shall be a roll-call vote of the full committee, a quorum being present. The committee shall issue a public report which shall include the vote of each member of the committee on such roll-call vote.
(d) Sanctions.--Whenever the Select Committee on Ethics of the Senate finds that an ethics violation has occurred, the Director shall recommend appropriate sanctions to the committee and whether a matter should be referred to the Department of Justice for investigation.
SEC. 305. PROCEDURAL RULES.
(a) Prohibition of Certain Investigations.--No investigation shall be undertaken by the Office of any alleged violation of a law, rule, regulation, or standard of conduct not in effect at the time of the alleged violation.
