What this bill would do

This bill seeks to amend the United States Code to limit how money is given to Presidential Libraries and Centers. It establishes strict restrictions on who can donate, banning contributions from entities like federal contractors, registered lobbyists, and foreign nationals. The legislation also implements a $10,000 aggregate donation limit and a two-year cooling-off period after a President leaves office. Furthermore, it requires detailed reporting of donations to the Archivist, who must then publish these records online. To ensure these rules are followed, the bill establishes civil and criminal penalties for violations.
