I've long fought to ban congressional stock trading, but the House Republican-passed bill has MAJOR LOOPHOLES.
Lawmakers can continue owning and selling stocks - so it won't solve the problem. Not gonna fly in the Senate.
Members of Congress should not own, buy, or sell stocks.
Following years of demands that members of Congress limit their stock trading, the House passed a bill that would bar lawmakers, their spouses and dependent children from buying individual stocks but allow them to keep and sell stocks they already own.
