This bill enhances government transparency and accountability by requiring disclosure of presidential tax returns, helping to identify potential conflicts of interest in our nation's highest office. The public interest in preventing corruption and ensuring the President is not financially compromised outweighs privacy concerns for this uniquely powerful position. Codifying this disclosure requirement strengthens democratic norms and public trust in government.

While protecting the public from those convicted of sex offenses and domestic violence is important, this bill's language allowing deportation of those 'who have committed' such acts without requiring conviction violates fundamental due process rights. The presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law is a cornerstone of American justice that must apply to all people within our borders.

This bill would prevent federal agencies from restricting lead ammunition and tackle even when science shows it poses risks to wildlife and human health.
