What the President should do, IMHO, is to sigh an EO stating that once you leave the position for which the clearance was issued, you by default, no longer have a need to know.

Seems that that would cover it...

That’s already the LAW. These morons shouldn’t have a clearance by the time they are escorted out the door. It’s the Agencies they are leaving that are at fault for this stupid story.

And here I thought that was SOP. I've had clearances at several different jobs and when I left those jobs, the clearances were no longer valid. Guess I wasn't high enough on the ladder to "get" to keep them. But, why would I ? Guess it was kind of along the lines of the more keys on your key ring the more important you were. 😹😹😹🍿🍻👍🏼🇺🇸

That would solve the problem on both sides. There is a very bad appearance of ethical conflicts of interest when government employees slide in and out of contractor jobs making millions off access their to secrets.

When anyone else changes jobs, they no longer get access to their previous jobs information. Why should government be different?
