Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview in 1-2 paragraphs
The No Torts for Trump Act amends Chapter 171 of Title 28, United States Code, to prohibit the President from seeking relief under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA). The FTCA allows individuals to file claims against the federal government for torts committed by federal employees. This bill would create an exception preventing the President from using this legal avenue, effectively blocking the President from filing tort claims against the government.
