Welcome to the House Democracy Assistance Commission (HDAC). The Commission is comprised of 20 Members of the House of Representatives who directly participate in the critical work of promoting and supporting the development of democratic governments around the world. Specifically, HDAC works through peer-to-peer partnerships with emerging democratic legislatures to assist in the development of the fundamental building blocks of legislative government: oversight, transparency, accountability, effective legislation, and responsiveness to constituents.
