The NO SELF Act prohibits the Navy from naming or renaming warships after any sitting President or Vice President of the United States. The bill applies to all naval vessels and takes effect immediately upon enactment. The legislation does not prevent ships from being named after former presidents or vice presidents once they leave office. This bill affects the Navy's ship-naming authority and would prevent sitting officeholders from having naval vessels named after them while in power. The bill contains no special funding requirements or implementation timeline beyond the effective date.
