Speaker Johnson Announces the ‘Stop Insider Trading Act’ to Ban Members of Congress from Purchasing Individual Stocks: It’s a Logical Thing to Do

EXCERPT:

JOHNSON: “Too often, Americans struggling to make ends meet have watched as lawmakers have entered office to leave as multi-millionaires. There's a handful of glaring examples. A couple of those people are still serving, notably on the Democrat side. The Stop Insider Trading Act does exactly what it says. It bans members of Congress from purchasing individual stocks from publicly traded companies, and it helps prevent public officials from profiting from inside information. It's a very logical thing to do.”
