In one fallout from the Trump-Biden spat, a Republican senator plans to introduce a bill barring the immediate family of legislators and high-ranking government officials from doing business in Ukraine, The Hill reports. Citing the government of Ukraine as “historically corrupt,” Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., plans to file on Oct. 14 a bill to ban members of the immediate family of the US president, vice president, Cabinet official or any lawmaker from “serving as a consultant, employee, independent contractor or board member for or owning 5% or more in any entity doing business in or with Ukraine.”
