Question Presented (from Petition)
Since 18 U.S.C.A. § 666 is even broader than other federal bribery statutes, does it suffer from the same constitutional infirmities of vagueness and overbreadth as this Court found in the application of another bribery statute, 18 U.S.C.A. § 201, in McDonnell v. U.S., 136 S.Ct. 2355 (2016)?
Question Presented (AI Summary)
Whether 18 U.S.C.A. § 666 suffers from the same constitutional infirmities of vagueness and overbreadth as 18 U.S.C.A. § 201 under McDonnell v. U.S.
