The charges against U.S. Senator Bob Menendez, formally accused of bribery from foreign actors, have prompted a group of legislators to introduce a bill aimed at strengthening federal laws on bribery.
The bill, first reported by CBS News, was introduced by Democratic Representative Angie Craig and has the support of Republican Nancy Mace. Craig's bill makes an explicit reference to Menendez's case when arguing in favor of expanding the statute.
