Bill > S310

This bill, known as the Eliminating Government-funded Oil-painting Act or EGO Act, prohibits the use of any federal government funds to pay for the creation of an official portrait of any federal officer or employee. This ban applies to a wide range of government officials, including the President, Vice President, members of Congress (which also includes Delegates and Resident Commissioners), and the heads of executive agencies or legislative branch offices. The bill defines "executive agency" as it is defined in section 133 of title 41 of the United States Code, which generally refers to departments and agencies within the executive branch of the federal government.
