except: Congress stock ban
A bipartisan group of senators has reached an agreement on a bill to ban stock trading by members of Congress, their spouses, and dependent children. The proposal aims to prevent lawmakers from profiting from insider knowledge and restore public trust in the legislative branch.
Key Provisions:
Immediate prohibition on congressional lawmakers buying stocks and other covered investments
Prohibition on selling stocks 90 days after the bill is enacted
Requirement for congressional members, the president, and vice president to divest from all covered investments starting in 2027
Penalties for violating the law, including the monthly salary of a lawmaker or 10% of the value of each asset bought or sold
