To limit donations made pursuant to settlement agreements to which the United States is a party, and for other purposes.

# HR 7387 Summary **What the Bill Does:** HR 7387 would restrict charitable donations that companies are required to make as part of settlement agreements with the federal government. When the government sues a company and reaches a settlement, sometimes the company agrees to donate money to charitable organizations as part of the deal. This bill would limit or regulate those types of donations. **Who It Affects:** The bill would primarily affect companies that settle legal cases with federal agencies, as well as the charitable organizations that currently receive settlement-directed donations.

It could also impact government agencies that negotiate these settlements. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced by Representative Lance Gooden (R-TX) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. No specific provisions or legislative language details are publicly available at this time.
