Department of Defense Ethics and Anti-Corruption Act of 2023

The Department of Defense Ethics and Anti-Corruption Act of 2023 primarily targets ethics and corruption concerns within the Department of Defense by implementing several key reforms. It extends the "revolving door" period from two to four years, prohibiting defense contractors from hiring certain former DoD officials within that timeframe, and requires contractors to disclose information about these hires and their lobbying activities. The bill also mandates transparency by requiring contractors to publicly report financial information, executive salaries, and political spending, while banning senior national security officials from advising foreign governments for compensation. These provisions apply directly to defense contractors, former DoD officials, and senior military and civilian personnel.
