The bill amends Title 65 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, specifically addressing the ethics standards and financial disclosure related to restricted activities for former public officials and employees. The key change in the legislation is the extension of the time period during which a former public official or employee is prohibited from representing a person for compensation on matters before the governmental body they were associated with. The current restriction of one year is increased to two years.

This amendment aims to enhance ethical standards by preventing potential conflicts of interest and ensuring that former officials do not leverage their previous positions for personal gain shortly after leaving public service. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
