This bill seeks to amend title 3, United States Code, to strictly define the signing authority for certain Presidential functions. It mandates that only the President may lawfully sign an engrossed bill, Executive order, or pardon or commutation, thereby preventing delegation of this specific power. A significant provision of the bill explicitly prohibits the use of any automatic signing device , such as an autopen, for these critical documents, ensuring personal Presidential endorsement. This measure aims to reinforce the authenticity and direct involvement of the President in these high-level actions. Furthermore, the bill includes a retroactive clause, declaring that any engrossed bill, Executive order, or pardon or commutation signed in violation of these new requirements, even if signed prior to the Act's effective date , will be considered to have no legal force or effect .
