Senate Bill 1247, known as the Duty to Report Act, was introduced following President Trump's comments to George Stephanopoulos about accepting foreign opposition research. Speaker Nancy Pelosi characterized the president's stance as a "criminal cover-up," while critics argue the bill would invite entrapment and overwhelm the FBI with spam. The irony of the bill is noted in relation to the Democrats' use of the Steele Dossier, which involved foreign intelligence.
