#CongressTradingBan

The Congress Trading Ban is a proposed legislative measure aimed at prohibiting members of the U.S. Congress from buying or selling individual stocks while in office. Supporters argue it would prevent conflicts of interest and insider trading, ensuring lawmakers prioritize public service over personal profit. Critics say it’s unnecessary if disclosure rules are followed. The push gained momentum following revelations of suspicious trades by lawmakers ahead of major events. Advocates demand transparency and accountability, emphasizing that elected officials should not use privileged information for financial gain. The movement reflects growing public concern over ethics in government and the integrity of democratic institutions.
