No cosponsors on record. Bills can pass without cosponsors — this often means the sponsor introduced the bill alone, either because it's a messaging bill, a chairman's mark, or simply early in the legislative cycle.

Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.

This bill would prevent the federal government from putting a sitting president's name, image, likeness, or signature on federal buildings, monuments, currency, or other government property while they are still in office. The restriction would apply only to current presidents, not to former presidents or other government officials. The goal appears to be maintaining a separation between a president's personal identity and federal assets during their time in power.
