Section 3282 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following: In the case of any person serving as President or Vice President of the United States, the duration of that person’s tenure in office shall not be considered for purposes of any statute of limitations applicable to any Federal criminal offense committed by that person (including any offenses committed during any period of time preceding such tenure in office). . The amendment made by subsection
(a)shall apply to any offense committed before the date of enactment of this section, if the statute of limitations applicable to that offense had not run as of such date. Nothing in this section may be construed to preclude the indictment or prosecution of a President or Vice President, during that President or Vice President’s tenure in office, for violations of the criminal laws of the United States.
