Summary  
The document contains a mix of administrative records related to payroll authorization forms for staff assistants employed by the U.S. House of Representatives, specifically under the House Select Committee on Assassinations (HSCA). The records include multiple instances of payroll authorization forms dated between 1977 and 1978, detailing appointments, salary adjustments, and employment status for individuals such as Elizabeth M. Horris, Elizabeth H. Norris, Elizabeth M. Brosh, and Elizabeth N. Brown. These forms reference "Assassinations" in some contexts, likely tied to the HSCA’s investigation into the JFK assassination. A final determination notification from the Assassination Records Review Board (December 8, 1995) notes that certain payroll records were postponed for release due to privacy concerns involving Social Security numbers (SSNs), with four postponents listed as SSNs. The document also includes a resume for Elizabeth M. Brown and a payroll certification memorandum requiring employees to disclose familial relationships with current members of Congress.
