The WILLIS Act would prohibit the federal government from awarding or providing any federal funds to the Fulton County District Attorney's Office in Georgia. The bill also requires the Attorney General to rescind all unobligated federal funds previously allocated to that office and to recover any federal money the office spent after January 1, 2021, requiring reimbursement to the federal government. This legislation directly affects the Fulton County District Attorney's Office and its operations, potentially limiting its resources and requiring it to repay past federal expenditures. The bill contains no specific funding amounts or implementation timelines beyond the January 1, 2021 starting date for recovery of past expenditures. The measure was introduced in August 2023 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee.
