Congressional Stock Trading?
Congress is revisiting the issue of stock trading by lawmakers, with several bipartisan bills proposed to restrict or ban Members of Congress and their families from owning stocks and other financial assets. Rep. Luna (R-FL) has filed a petition requiring 218 signatures to force a vote on her bill, though House Speaker Johnson (R-LA) opposes these restrictions. Given multiple competing proposals, immediate legislative action appears unlikely, but momentum for reform exists.
