Prevents presidential self-pardon, limits foreign payments, and enhances transparency and ethics in government.

The Protecting Our Democracy Act aims to prevent abuses of presidential power by voiding any self-pardon by the President. It prohibits senior federal officials from accepting foreign payments without congressional consent. The Act also mandates that online platforms display sponsors of political ads and requires the President to submit income tax returns to Congress. Additionally, it enhances transparency by requiring reports on expired budget balances and national emergency spending.
