A violator is subject to criminal penalties—a fine, a prison term of up to five years, or both.

Additionally, the bill creates a new category of federal employees—immediate family members of the President or Vice President—that is subject to statutory restrictions on and penalties for soliciting or receiving a gift from a foreign government or entity. An immediate family member is a parent, parent-in-law, child, or sibling.
