'Too many members of the Senate trade in stocks,' Senate Banking Committee chair says

The push for stricter regulation related to members of Congress trading individual stocks has been picking up momentum in 2022.

A bill is introduced to address insider trading in Congress

LOL.


House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has been a vocal opponent of banning members of Congress from participating in the stock market. Her husband, Paul, is an active stock trader, according to reports.
"We are a free-market economy,” she said during a press conference in December, adding that lawmakers “should be able to participate in that."


Yep, the only time democrats try to defend a free market of any degree is when THEY are making money.

What disgusting human beings they are.

All well and fine that they should be able to participate but then you need to argue that people need to be able to participate in insider trading like they do.

Congress critters should have all investments in "blind trusts".
That they don't just proves corruption.

I thought Pelosi came out against congressional trading, or was that before she decided to not retire.

This legislation is nothing more than virtue signaling.

It's all they know.
