This bill proposes to amend section 207 of title 18, United States Code, by introducing new restrictions on lobbying activities by former federal employees. It specifically targets individuals who previously served in the State Department or the Department of Defense . Under the proposed amendment, these former employees would be prohibited from lobbying the federal government on matters related to foreign military sales . This prohibition applies if they participated in any foreign military sales program, project, or activity during the three-year period immediately preceding their separation from federal employment. The legislation aims to prevent a "revolving door" phenomenon by limiting the ability of former officials to influence federal determinations on foreign military sales.
