The SWAMP Act

Posted by Max May 17 '17, 22:12

H. R. 2414 A Bill To limit the amount of expenditure on Presidential travel, and for other purposes.

This Act may be cited as the “Stop Waste And Misuse by the President Act of 2017” or as the “SWAMP Act of 2017”.

if that person, while traveling for official business or for personal purposes, stays in a hotel or other establishment providing daily-rate accommodation in which that person has an ownership or financial interest, that person shall reimburse to the Treasury—

(1) any amount expended by the United States Secret Service for the provision of such protection; and

(2) any amount expended for other costs incurred by the Government pertaining to that stay.

I presume a bill that tallies past expenses is dead in the water. (www.congress.gov)
