RUBIO Act
The RUBIO Act (HR 3528) prohibits the U.S. Secretary of State from holding or performing duties of any other federal position. It also requires that no federal funds be used to cover the Secretary's salary or expenses if they hold another position. This bill directly affects the Secretary of State by preventing dual appointments in federal roles. The key mechanism is a funding restriction to enforce the prohibition on holding multiple federal positions.
