Introduced May 7, 2026 by Lance Gooden · Last progress May 7, 2026
Amends the federal criminal statute that governs protection of the President by inserting new language into 18 U.S.C. §1751(c). The bill identifies where text will be added to that subsection but does not include the actual text to be inserted, so the precise legal change is unspecified in the provided version. Because the insertion point is specified but the inserted language is missing, the bill as presented will alter the statute at that location only after the missing text is supplied; the practical effects therefore cannot be fully determined from this text alone.
