Blocks chief executives convicted of corruption from holding federal government jobs.

This bill would stop people convicted of certain corruption-related crimes, committed while they were chief executives of companies, from getting jobs in the federal government's executive branch. It would also remove anyone currently in such a federal job if they have these convictions. This changes current rules, which do not specifically block these individuals from serving.

What Would Change

Currently, no specific federal law prevents individuals convicted of corruption-related crimes, committed as chief executives, from serving in the federal government's executive branch. If this bill becomes law, such individuals would be blocked from getting these jobs, and anyone currently holding such a job would be removed.

Key Provisions

Blocks individuals convicted of certain corruption crimes, committed as a chief executive, from being appointed to federal executive branch jobs.
Removes any current federal executive branch employees who have been convicted of these specific corruption crimes committed as a chief executive.
Includes crimes like bribery, copyright infringement, fraud, wage theft, and tax evasion as reasons for ineligibility.
