Stopping Corruption: Strict Limits on Donations for White House and Presidential Projects.
This law establishes strict rules for donations made toward public properties associated with the President and Vice President (like the White House) and events held there. The goal is to prevent corruption and conflicts of interest by blocking individuals with active government interests (like lobbyists or contractors) from funding these projects. Citizens benefit from increased transparency through mandatory disclosure of all donors and their communications with officials.
Key points
