Congress Under Fire: The Push to Ban Stock Trading
In recent years, the call to ban stock trading among U.S. lawmakers has grown louder—and for good reason. Multiple incidents have raised eyebrows over members of Congress trading stocks shortly before major policy changes or economic events. This has sparked concerns about insider knowledge and a lack of transparency.
To combat this, bipartisan efforts are gaining ground. From the ETHICS Act to the No Corruption in Government Act, proposed laws aim to stop members of Congress and their families from trading individual stocks while in office. The goal? Restore public trust and eliminate conflicts of interest.
With over 85% of Americans in support, momentum is building for change.
