Ban on Inaugural Ticket Sales

S. 60, Sen. Feinstein’s ban on the sale of inaugural tickets, apparently passed the Senate today.  The bill is available here and with two exceptions, bans the sale of tickets for the swearing-in.  The bill would make it illegal for any person to

(1) . . . knowingly and willfully sell for money or property, or facilitate the sale for money or property of, a ticket to a Presidential inaugural ceremony;

(2) with the intent to defraud, falsely make, forge, counterfeit, or falsely alter a ticket to a Presidential inaugural ceremony; or

(3) with the intent to defraud, use, unlawfully possess, or exhibit a ticket to a Presidential inaugural ceremony, knowing the ticket to be falsely made, forged, counterfeited, or falsely altered.
