What this amendment would do

SA 4490, submitted by Mr. Schiff, aims to change the Federal Tort Claims Act by adding new exceptions to section 2680 of title 28, United States Code.

The purpose of this amendment is to prevent certain claims from being brought, regardless of when the act or omission happened. These exceptions apply to claims brought by:

  • The President
  • An individual who becomes President while a claim is pending

This change would apply to any claim that is currently pending or is brought on or after the date the Act is enacted.
