Bill overview
The Stop Waste and Misuse by the President Act of 2021 (SWAMP Act) aims to prevent the President and their family from benefiting financially from presidential travel. Specifically, it requires individuals like the President, Vice President, or family members who stay at hotels where they have a financial interest to reimburse the U.S. Treasury for Secret Service protection costs and other government expenses incurred during those stays. The bill is based on concerns about the President’s frequent travel to properties he owns and the associated costs to taxpayers.
