Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that President Trump must comply with the Foreign Emoluments Clause, by submitting all plans for his jumbo jet gift from Qatar immediately to Congress.

The House of Representatives has passed a resolution expressing its sense that President Trump must adhere to the Foreign Emoluments Clause of the Constitution. This clause prohibits any person holding office from accepting presents or emoluments from foreign states without the consent of Congress . The resolution specifically addresses a reported gift of a Boeing 747-8 aircraft, described as a "flying palace," from the royal family of Qatar. The resolution mandates that President Trump immediately submit all plans for this significant gift to Congress. It further stipulates that if he intends to accept the aircraft, he must first obtain congressional consent, as has been the practice of his predecessors in similar circumstances. The resolution highlights concerns that accepting such a gift without approval would violate the Constitution and could pose national security risks, including potential corruption and espionage.
