Key Points
Impact Analysis
Personal Impact
Senior Executive Service members and political appointees at federal law enforcement agencies could be personally sued by citizens if troops are deployed to polling places. This creates new personal legal exposure for top-level federal law enforcement officials, who would face fast-tracked litigation with direct Supreme Court appeal.
“the term ``covered person'' means any person in the Senior Executive Service of a Federal law enforcement agency or a political appointee of a Federal law enforcement agency.”
