Restoring Trust in Public Servants Act
This bill, the Restoring Trust in Public Servants Act, requires Members of Congress, executive branch officials, and judicial officers to divest certain financial investments within 90 days, including stocks, commodities, digital assets, and security futures, while exempting diversified funds and Treasury securities. It limits outside income for Members of Congress to 15% of total income (with exceptions for teaching and medical practice), prohibits service on for-profit boards, and establishes a one-year lobbying ban for former Members when contacting covered executive branch officials or congressional staff. Violations would result in penalties equal to the official's monthly salary or fixed fines, with public disclosure of offenders' identities. The bill aims to reduce conflicts of interest by restricting financial activities and post-office lobbying by public officials.
