2 - Reasons
President-Elect, according to the Constitution, has the power to nominate Secretaries to the Senate before being inaugurated. There's nowhere stating that the President-Elect nor the Vice-President-Elect have the obligation to leave Congress in case they are serving in any chamber until the inauguration. This can lead to a conflict of interest, as Senators vote for Secretary nominations, and if the President-elect is still Senator at the same time, they could be voting on their own nominations. If there's also the Vice-President, that's 2 Senators out of 6 voting in favor of the nomination almost automatically.
In order to prevent any kind of conflict of interest on this matter and preserve the Separation of Powers, this amendment is proposed.
