(3) The President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Delegates may approve
reimbursement in excess of the daily limits provided in paragraph (2) of this Item 2D if a legislator
who is traveling out of state as part of a State delegation or representing the State will incur
expenditures for lodging and meals in excess of the daily limits due to the nature of the out-of-state
travel or to the high cost of lodging and meals in the location of the out-of-state travel. The
authorization of approval shall include the circumstances involved and document the basis for the
costs, including the maximum amount to be reimbursed; and
(4) Copies of all requests for approval, all written approvals and disapprovals, and all
requests for actual reimbursement shall be maintained in a central file in the Finance Office of the
Department of Legislative Services and kept available for public inspection upon request for a period

programs, credit union services, deductions for charitable purposes, workers' compensation coverage,
and payroll deductions relating to these programs. Participation in these programs shall be in the
same manner as the participation of State employees. Additional benefits programs authorized for
State employees during a legislative term of office may not be made available to legislators until the
beginning of the next term, at which time they shall be fully available unless prohibited elsewhere
in this Resolution. Legislators may not receive State employee death benefits, paid leave, or payroll
deductions other than those associated with the items authorized by this Resolution. Legislators may
not participate in the State's unemployment insurance program, including those former legislators
who have been unseated by the elective process.
(2) A legislator who leaves the General Assembly may continue to participate in the State
health program until the former legislator declines to participate in the program, becomes eligible
