This bill would change federal retirement law so that a current or former Member of Congress convicted of certain felony sex offenses would lose eligibility for retirement benefits based on their service in Congress. The covered offenses include federal sexual abuse crimes such as rape, sexual exploitation and abuse of children, obscene visual depictions of child sexual abuse, and human trafficking, along with similar State or Tribal offenses. The rule would apply to both the Civil Service Retirement System and the Federal Employees' Retirement System. It would cover only offenses committed after the bill becomes law.
