Bill > HR5352

This bill aims to prevent federal funding for any organization that employs individuals who support or celebrate political violence and domestic terrorism. Specifically, the bill prohibits the use of federal money (such as grants, contracts, or other financial support) for entities that have employees who endorse or express approval of acts of political violence or domestic terrorism, as defined under the existing legal definition in section 2331 of title 18 of the United States Code. The bill does not provide detailed criteria for determining what constitutes "condoning" or "celebrating" such violence, which could potentially leave room for interpretation. The broad language suggests the intent is to discourage organizations from tolerating employees who might support violent political actions by making such tolerance financially consequential through the withdrawal of federal funding.
