Stricter Post-Government Employment Rules for Senior Officials
This bill establishes tougher restrictions on former high-ranking government officials working for foreign governments after leaving office. The goal is to prevent conflicts of interest following government service. The new rules apply to individuals appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate.
Key points
Senior officials confirmed by the Senate face a two-year ban on representing a foreign government before U.S. officials with the intent to influence.
An indefinite ban is imposed on representing governments or entities from countries designated as "countries of concern" before U.S. officials.
The Secretary of State may propose changes to the list of "countries of concern," which become effective upon Congressional approval.
