Neguse-led Ethics Bill into Law | 2022-12-27 | 2022 | 2022-12 | Democrat | House | CO | Joe Neguse | N000191 | neguse.house.gov | neguse | https://neguse.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Washington D.C.—Today, President Biden enacted Congressman Joe Neguse’s bill, the Strengthening Ethics Act of 2021, to foster government accountability and oversight. The legislation makes technical changes to Title 5 of the U.S. Code and elevates the Federal Advisory Committee Act, the Inspector General Act of 1978, and the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 officially into the United States Code. “This bill makes substantial steps towards increasing government accountability and oversight, enshrining several good governance bills into the base text of the U.S. Code Title 5. As a member of the House Judiciary Committee, I am proud to have spearheaded this effort to promote ethics in government,” said Congressman Joe Neguse. By moving these statutes into the base text of the U.S. Code Title 5, the Strengthening Ethics Act of 2021 helps the Judiciary Committee promote good governance and conduct continued oversight over the branches of government. From requiring financial disclosures from public officials to maintaining independent avenues for probing misconduct, the Act and the provisions it elevates are central to upholding the highest possible standards of government accountability.
