To prohibit the Department of Justice from using taxpayer funds to make settlement payments to individuals convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers on January 6, 2021.

This legislation restricts the Department of Justice from using federal taxpayer money to provide financial settlements to individuals convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers during the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. The bill aims to ensure that public funds are not utilized to compensate those who committed violent acts against police officers during the riot. If enacted, this measure would effectively bar the government from settling lawsuits with these specific offenders, potentially impacting ongoing or future litigation regarding their treatment while in federal custody. The move reflects a broader congressional effort to prevent federal resources from benefiting individuals involved in the Capitol breach, though the practical impact remains limited as the Department of Justice rarely enters into such financial settlements with convicted rioters.
