AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Pardon Attorney at the Department of Justice to send Congress a written report within 30 days after each presidential pardon. The report would cover the person's criminal history not related to the pardoned offense and an analysis of their risk of reoffending and danger to communities. The bill would also bar anyone who received a presidential pardon from giving more than $1,000 to the President's campaign committee, the President's leadership PAC, or groups that made independent expenditures supporting the President's election. The Federal Election Commission could refer violations to the Attorney General for criminal prosecution.
