Plain-English Summary

This bill would prevent the Department of Justice from offering immunity deals to the President, Vice President, or their close family members and business associates when they are suspected of certain crimes. Immunity deals typically allow someone to avoid prosecution in exchange for cooperating with investigators, but this bill would ban that option for these high-ranking officials and their relatives. The measure aims to ensure that no one in the President's or Vice President's inner circle can escape criminal accountability through special legal agreements.
