Anti-Bribery Improvement Act

This bill would change the federal bribery law in title 18 of the U.S. Code. It would add a definition of "access," meaning a public official's use of their ability to influence any decision or action on a matter that is or may come before them in their official role. It would make it a bribery crime to give or offer something of value to a public official, or to someone selected to be one, to get them to explicitly promise to provide access. It would also make it a bribery crime for a public official to seek or accept something of value in return for explicitly promising or undertaking to provide access.
