AFFAIR Act

This bill, HR 7290 (the AFFAIR Act), prohibits federal funding to any state or local chief prosecutor's office if any employee in that office has been convicted of corruption or other unlawful activity. It directly affects state and local prosecutors' offices that employ individuals with such convictions. The key provision blocks federal grant money from being awarded to these offices, creating a funding consequence for staff misconduct. The law focuses on preventing federal resources from supporting offices with employees found guilty of corruption, not on allegations or pending cases.
