Restricting the President and Family from Suing the Federal Government
This bill amends federal law to prevent the sitting President of the United States and their immediate relatives (spouse, children, siblings, and in-laws) from filing lawsuits against the federal government for damages caused by federal employees. This restriction applies only during the President's term in office. For the average citizen, this bill introduces no changes to their rights to sue the government.
Key points
The President and their immediate family lose the right to file claims against the federal government under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA).
This limitation is active only while the President is serving their term and applies to claims seeking compensation for harm caused by federal officials.
