Denying congressional consent for President Donald J. Trump to accept any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign state throughout the tenure of his Presidency

This joint resolution may be cited as the "No Congressional Consent for President Donald J. Trump To Accept Foreign Emoluments of Any Kind Whatsoever" . The President, as holder of a Federal office, is subject to the strict scrutiny of the Emoluments Clause. As a holder of office of profit or trust, the President shall not accept any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign state, without the consent of Congress. Historic meaning and precedent provides that what qualifies as an Emolument is given broad construction, further broadened by the inclusion "of any kind whatever," leaving Congress with the power to consent or deny consent to a full spectrum of transactions. Emoluments reach not only foreign states, but also their agents and instrumentalities, and precedent has determined that corporations owned or controlled by a foreign government are presumptively foreign states. The authority granted in article I, section 9, and reaffirmed in subsection (b) hereby denies congressional consent to allow President Donald J. Trump to accept any present, Emolument, Office, or Title of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign state. Nothing in this joint resolution supersedes any requirement of related laws that limit the principle that Presidents are entitled to presumptions of good faith and public interestedness in their official conduct. Nothing in this joint resolution may be construed to imply that an explicit congressional denial of consent is required in order to trigger the prohibition of the Emoluments Clause; on the contrary, only an explicit grant of congressional consent can overcome the prohibition; this joint resolution thus represents not a necessary step to invocation and enforcement of the Clause but only a step taken to underscore the sense of Congress that compliance with the Clause is a matter of the greatest urgency and importance. President Donald J. Trump shall submit, within 30 days after the enactment of this joint resolution, to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President pro tempore of the Senate a report on matters relevant to this joint resolution, including a detailed account of actions taken to ensure compliance with the Constitutionâ€™s article I, section 9, also known as the Emoluments Clause.
