Executive Branch Comprehensive Ethics Enforcement Act

The Executive Branch Comprehensive Ethics Enforcement Act (S. 1546) aims to strengthen government oversight by granting the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) more power to investigate and penalize ethical violations within the executive branch. Under this bill, the OGE would be authorized to issue subpoenas, order officials to sell off conflicting financial assets, and recommend disciplinary actions such as suspensions or demotions. Additionally, the bill increases transparency for the public by requiring the OGE to maintain a centralized, publicly accessible database of financial disclosure reports, ethics waivers, and conflict-of-interest records for government officials.
