HR 10290 United States House · 119th Congress

No Pardon Paydays Act of 2026

The No Pardon Paydays Act of 2026 requires the Pardon Attorney to submit a detailed written analysis to Congress within 30 days of any presidential pardon. This report must include the recipient's full criminal history and an assessment of their risk for reoffending or posing a danger to communities. Additionally, the bill restricts pardoned individuals from making political contributions exceeding $1,000 to committees supporting the President or entities advocating for their reelection. The Federal Election Commission would enforce these contribution limits and could refer violations for criminal prosecution.
