Creates a new federal agency to investigate and fight government corruption.
The problem
Government corruption undermines public trust. Citizens and officials report concerns about ethical violations lacking dedicated oversight and enforcement mechanisms.
The proposal
Establishes an independent Anti-Corruption Bureau within the federal government to investigate corruption allegations, enforce ethics laws, and coordinate anti-corruption efforts across agencies.
The impact
Federal employees, elected officials, and the public would be affected through new oversight structures, investigation processes, and potential enforcement actions against corrupt conduct.
A specialized bureau could focus exclusively on corruption cases instead of spreading resources thin across multiple agencies. This targeted approach might improve investigation quality and case resolution times.
A visible anti-corruption agency may deter officials from unethical conduct. Public awareness of dedicated oversight could restore confidence in government institutions.
Centralizing anti-corruption work could eliminate gaps between agencies and prevent duplicated efforts. Better coordination might catch corruption networks more effectively.
Demonstrating commitment to fighting corruption may increase citizen confidence in government. Transparency about investigations could show institutional responsiveness to ethics concerns.
Creating a new federal agency requires funding for staff, facilities, and operations. These costs add to the federal budget without reducing other spending.
A powerful corruption agency could be weaponized against political opponents if leadership changes. Independence safeguards may be difficult to enforce over time.
The FBI, DOJ, and Inspector General offices already investigate corruption. A new bureau might duplicate existing work rather than improve outcomes.
Starting a new agency requires recruiting expertise, building procedures, and establishing credibility. Initial inefficiency could delay corruption investigations.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
