We are working to ensure that the Constitution's Foreign Emoluments Clause is enforced by directing the Senate Legal Counsel to take legal action against any acceptance of gifts, payments, or titles from foreign governments by the President without Congress’s approval. This aims to protect the integrity of public office and maintain trust in our government.
