Bill Summary

A BILL To prohibit special Government employees from holding contracts or agreements with the Federal Government, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the ELON MUSK Act (Eliminating Looting of Our Nation by Mitigating Unethical State Kleptocracy Act of 2025), seeks to prohibit special Government employees from entering into or benefiting from any contracts or agreements with the Federal Government. A "special Government employee" is defined under 18 U.S. Code § 202, which typically refers to individuals who are temporarily hired or appointed to serve the government in a limited capacity, such as consultants, advisory board members, or part-time workers. The bill mandates that any existing contracts held by special Government employees at the time of the act's enactment must be terminated, effectively preventing these individuals from simultaneously working for the government and profiting from government contracts. The legislation appears designed to prevent potential conflicts of interest and reduce the opportunity for what the bill's sponsors view as unethical practices by government-affiliated individuals.
