A sitting President could not use the Federal Tort Claims Act to seek money from the United States. The same rule would hit someone who files a claim first, then becomes President while the claim is still open. It would also apply to covered pending cases.
Modern Action shows what the legislation would change, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
No Torts for Trump Act is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Latest action on S. 3182: Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects a sitting President and any person with an open FTCA claim who later becomes President. It could end their ability to use that law to seek money from the United States. It also affects courts and federal agencies that handle FTCA claims, because they would need to apply this new President-specific rule.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it changes who can use a major legal path for seeking payment from the federal government. Today, the Federal Tort Claims Act can let people sue the United States for some harms caused by federal workers. This bill would remove that option for the President, and for someone who becomes President while an FTCA claim is still open. Its full effect is unclear because the bill does not say what other legal options, if any, would remain.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
