Bill overview
This bill, the No Gratuities for Governing Act of 2025, amends existing federal law to clarify the definition of ‘illegal gratuity’ when federal funds are involved. Specifically, it increases the potential penalties for offering or accepting bribes related to government contracts and transactions worth $5,000 or more. The changes aim to strengthen the prosecution of corruption involving public funds and ensure accountability within government agencies and organizations receiving federal dollars.
