Closing Bribery Loopholes Act amends the definition of "official act" to clarify bribery prohibitions.
The Closing Bribery Loopholes Act amends title 18, United States Code, to clarify the definition of "official act" for purposes of bribery of public officials and witnesses. It specifies that an official act may be a single act, multiple acts, or a course of conduct, and it may occur regardless of whether it achieves a desired outcome. This change aims to close potential loopholes in the bribery laws.
