This requirement is clearly unconstitutional based upon Article I, Section 9 - “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.”

Isn't a bill of attainder only relevant to a specific person? For example, a bill against Oprah Winfrey alone is illegal, but a law against all bank executives theoretically isn't. ObamaCare Jokes Obama Jokes
