Executive Accountability: Financial Penalties for Unauthorized Military Conflicts.

This law imposes severe financial penalties and career restrictions on top Executive officials who initiate military action lasting over 60 days without Congressional approval. The goal is to protect citizens from unnecessary, costly conflicts by ensuring that war decisions are driven by national interest, not personal or financial gain. This increases oversight over public military spending.
Key points
Officials (President, VP, Secretaries) forfeit 100% of their salary and face $50,000 daily fines if an unauthorized conflict continues beyond 60 days.
Strict ban on war profiteering: any financial gain derived from the conflict is confiscated, and officials permanently lose federal pensions and post-service benefits.
Lifetime ban on working for defense contractors or lobbying on defense matters for officials found responsible for unauthorized military action.
