To prohibit Federal funding for entities that employ individuals who condone and celebrate political violence and domestic terrorism, and for other purposes.

# Bill Summary: HR 5352 **What the Bill Would Do** HR 5352 would prohibit federal funding (grants, contracts, and other support) from going to organizations that employ people who publicly condone or celebrate political violence and domestic terrorism. The bill aims to prevent taxpayer money from supporting entities with staff members who openly endorse violent extremism. **Who It Affects** This legislation would impact federal agencies, grant programs, and contractors who receive federal funding. Organizations across various sectors—nonprofits, educational institutions, research centers, and private contractors—could potentially be affected if they employ individuals deemed to support political violence or domestic terrorism. **Current Status** The bill is currently in committee, meaning it hasn't yet been debated or voted on by the full House.

As introduced, the bill lacks detailed specifications on how "condone and celebrate" would be defined or enforced, which would likely be key points of discussion if the bill moves forward. The bill was sponsored by Representative Derrick Van Orden (R-WI).
