.RepRussellFry introduced legislation aimed at protecting presidents and vice presidents from politically-motivated prosecutions.
Rep. Russell Fry is announcing legislation Tuesday aimed at protecting presidents and vice presidents from politically motivated prosecutions, a move that comes after a Manhattan grand jury delivered a historic indictment of former President Donald Trump last month.
The bill would amend existing federal law to allow current and former presidents and vice presidents the option to move civil or criminal cases made against them from state court to federal court.The bill marks Congress’s first legislative response to Trump’s indictment and is expected to be referred to the Judiciary Committee, likely bolstering chairman Rep.
Fry, a freshman member of Congress, was backed by Trump last year in his successful primary bid against former Rep. Tom Rice , who had defected from most of his party to vote to impeach Trump after the January 6 Capitol riot.
