Since the Clause's inception, the Supreme Court has interpreted it broadly and has continually expanded the breadth of the privilege given to legislators.3 Such interpretations have enabled self-interested legislators to abuse the privilege by shielding their misconduct from the Judiciary, the Executive, and the public.4 Moreover, this improper broadening of the legislative privilege has precluded needed inquiry into legislators' actions.5The Supreme Court has not indicated whether the privilege granted by the or Clause permits legislators to refuse to disclose documents relating to legislative actions.6 The Ninth and D.

Part III discusses the D. C. and Ninth Circuit cases creating the circuit split regarding the privilege's application to document disclosure. Part TV analyzes the or Clause using textual, historical, and ethical constitutional interpretive methods. …" @default.
