Summary of Bill HR 1109

Bill 119 HR 1109 aims to make changes to title 28 of the United States Code in order to increase transparency and oversight of third-party beneficiaries in civil actions. The bill seeks to ensure that individuals or entities who are not directly involved in a lawsuit but may benefit from its outcome are held accountable and their interests are made known to all parties involved.

This oversight is designed to protect the integrity of the legal system and ensure that all parties are treated fairly and impartially.
