A newly elected senator from New Jersey, Andy Kim, has introduced a bill that would require high-ranking government officials to reveal their financial dealings with foreign governments. This comes after President-elect Donald Trump made some controversial Cabinet picks. Senator-elect Kim says the bill isn't political, but about security. He wants to boost public trust in government, especially when it comes to national security.

The bill is supported by Senator Elizabeth Warren from Massachusetts. She thinks it's important to know if top government officials might be influenced by foreign powers. Some of Trump's picks, like Pete Hegseth and Tulsi Gabbard, have military backgrounds but are known more for their media personalities than national security roles. Both have faced controversies in the past.

Trump also chose Marco Rubio for Secretary of State and Scott Bessent, a hedge fund manager, for Treasury Secretary. Bessent was a big fundraiser for Trump's campaign. The bill aims to make sure these officials are working for the American people's best interests, not foreign governments.
