HR 7711 United States House · 119th Congress

No Rewards for January 6 Rioters Act

This bill prohibits using federal funds - including the Judgment Fund or victim compensation programs - to pay any individual prosecuted for the January 6 Capitol attack, even if later pardoned. It also bans creating new compensation funds for these individuals and stops refunds of court-ordered payments like restitution or fines from being returned to rioters. Any funds that would have been refunded must instead be transferred to the Architect of the Capitol. The law directly affects those convicted or pardoned for involvement in the Capitol attack, blocking taxpayer-funded compensation for their actions.
