What this amendment would do

This amendment, submitted by Ms. Cortez Masto to bill S. 3183, aims to add a requirement for the Department of Justice to produce a report.

The purpose of this addition is to hold officials accountable by requiring the Department of Justice to submit a report to specific Senate and House committees and make it available on their public website. The report must include:

  • All records of communications between White House officials and specific Department of Justice offices regarding the December 1, 2025, formal pardon of former Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernandez.
  • Any records that support claims that the prosecution of Mr. Hernandez was unsupported by evidence or politically motivated.
  • Evidence of evidentiary insufficiencies, procedural defects, or legal errors in the conviction or prosecution.
  • A narrative explaining how exonerating evidence overcomes trial evidence, such as phone data of co-conspirators visiting the presidential palace, ledgers from a murdered trafficker-witness, audio recordings of MS-13 gang payments, and pictures of Mr. Hernandez with drug traffickers at the 2010 World Cup.
  • A summary timeline of the federal law enforcement investigation into Mr. Hernandez and his associates.
  • A detailed description of Emil Bove's role in the conviction, prosecution, and investigation of Mr. Hernandez and his associates.
