No Presidential Self-Serving Lawsuits Act of 2026

This bill establishes a clear prohibition against a President filing a civil action against the United States. This measure aims to prevent a sitting President from suing the government they are elected to lead. A key provision of the bill specifically voids the settlement agreement in the case of "Trump v. Internal Revenue Service, No. 1:26-cv-20609 (S.D. Fla.)." It further prohibits the establishment of any compensation fund to settle civil actions brought by a President or former President against the United States. Moreover, the legislation explicitly bans the use of Federal funds for any such settlement agreements, including the specified Trump v. IRS case. To ensure compliance, the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to take necessary actions to recover any Federal funds that are used in violation of these new restrictions.
