AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would bar any person finally convicted of certain crimes from being appointed to a job in the federal executive branch, if any part of the crime happened while the person was the chief executive officer (CEO) of a non-federal public or private organization. This applies even if the conduct was not part of the person's CEO duties. Covered crimes include federal bribery, copyright infringement, cybercrime, embezzlement, fraud, insider trading, wage theft, and tax evasion, as well as comparable state crimes. People already working in the executive branch when the bill becomes law who would not be eligible under these rules would be removed from their jobs.
