The Republican-led Senate is targeting a potential new 'get filthy rich' loophole that would allow some lawmakers and congressional staff to profit from lucrative consulting work once they leave office. The proposed amendment aims to limit such arrangements, which have been criticized for enriching individuals with close ties to Congress.
