Stop Ballroom Bribery Act
The Stop Ballroom Bribery Act restricts donations for specific properties tied to the President or Vice President, including White House grounds, Number One Observatory Circle, and monuments honoring them. It prohibits donations from individuals or entities involved in government litigation, seeking contracts/grants, lobbying the executive branch, or pursuing pardons or appointments. The bill requires prior approval from the National Park Service and Office of Government Ethics, mandates disclosure of meetings with officials, and bans donor recognition or anonymous contributions. It also imposes a two-year lobbying cooling-off period for donors and sets civil/criminal penalties for violations, including fines and disgorgement of benefits.
