Preventing Presidential Election Interference Act

This bill amends two sections of federal law to strengthen penalties for election interference by government officials. It expands the scope of criminal provisions to explicitly include the President, Vice President, and other executive branch employees (previously limited to lower-level staff), and increases the maximum prison sentence for violations from one year to three years. The changes specifically target actions like coercing political activity or interfering with elections through official authority. These amendments directly affect federal employees, particularly high-level officials in the executive branch, by making certain election-related misconduct criminal offenses with steeper penalties. The bill focuses on clarifying and broadening existing legal protections against election interference by government actors.
