#CongressTradingBan The #CongressTradingBan movement calls for a prohibition on members of the U.S. Congress trading individual stocks while in office. Supporters argue that lawmakers have access to sensitive, non-public information, which creates potential conflicts of interest and undermines public trust. Critics of the current system point to instances of suspiciously timed trades during major events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The proposed ban aims to increase transparency and ensure that elected officials prioritize the public's interest over personal financial gain. Momentum for the ban continues to grow, with bipartisan support and rising pressure from voters demanding accountability in government.
