Two House Republicans, Representatives Jeff Flake of Arizona and Dan Lungren of California, said they would introduce competing legislation that would avoid a ban by creating a preapproval process for private travel and require lawmakers to post records of such trips on the Internet. Critics like Mr. Flake and Mr. Lungren say the moratorium went overboard, prohibiting a university from paying travel expenses for a lawmaker to speak at commencement. Mr. Lungren said he served on the board of a charitable foundation in his home state and would be required under the moratorium to pay his own way to board meetings.
