(Credit: AP Photo/Alex Brandon) A trio of Senate Democrats will introduce a law prohibiting federal employees from spending taxpayer money on travel to properties owned by either President Donald Trump or other senior government officials.

The Hotel Act stands for Heightened Oversight of Travel, Eating and Lodging, according to The Washington Post.
