The White House announced on Dec. 24 that Biden had signed S. 932, known as the No Congressionally Obligated Recurring Revenue Used As Pensions To Incarcerated Officials Now (No CORRUPTION) Act. Supporters say the bill closes a loophole in federal pension laws that allowed lawmakers convicted of certain crimes to continue collecting pensions while appealing their convictions. The bill amends the law so that former members of Congress lose their pensions immediately after being convicted of certain felonies related to their official duties, regardless of how long their appeals process takes. If a conviction is later overturned, affected individuals will be entitled to retroactive pension payments for the period during which their pensions were withheld. Previously, federal law forced convicted members to give up their pensions only after exhausting all their appeals.They're getting lumps of coal this year...
