     &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Closing the Law Enforcement Consent Loophole Act of 2021&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill establishes a framework to prohibit law enforcement officers at the federal, state, and local levels from engaging in sexual acts with individuals who are in custody. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At the federal level, the bill makes it unlawful for a federal law enforcement officer who is acting under color of law to engage in a sexual act with an individual who is under arrest, in detention, or in custody. Consent is not a defense to prosecution for unlawful conduct. A violator is subject to criminal penalties&amp;#8212;a fine, a prison term of up to 15 years, or both.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At the state and local level, the bill conditions eligibility for funds under the Community Oriented Policing Services program on the enactment of a similar law. &lt;/p&gt;
