Rep. Anthony D'Esposito (R-N.Y.) and other New York Republicans in the U.S. House on Tuesday introduced the “No Fortune for Fraud” Act, a bill that would place limits on the profitability of violating certain federal laws relating to campaign finance.

D'Esposito announced the legislation in front of the Supreme Court building in Washington, joined by Reps. Nick LaLota (R-N.Y.) and Brandon Williams (R-N.Y.). The bill would make it illegal for people who violated federal campaign finance and ethics laws from profiting through TV appearances, specials, memoirs, or public speeches.
