Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
Introduced June 4, 2025 by Patrick Ryan · Last progress 9 months ago
Amends the federal conflict-of-interest statute (18 U.S.C. 208(a)) to change which executive-branch officials and employees must recuse when a matter would affect the financial interests of a person’s former employer. The previous long, specific list of covered offices is replaced with a shorter rule that covers officers and employees in Executive Schedule positions (levels I–V), special Government employees, and officers or employees of the Executive Office of the President. The text notes an additional insertion after a quoted passage, but the excerpt does not show that inserted language.
