After Pelosi’s Deals, Dem Lawmaker Wants To Ban Stock Trading

Following Nancy Pelosi’s under-the-table deals, a Democratic senator wants to prohibit members of Congress from trading stocks.

After House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her husband made millions on Wall Street in recent years, a Democrat lawmaker is introducing legislation to strengthen congressional ethics by prohibiting politicians from trading stocks.

Ossoff Looking for Co-Sponsor

The New York Post reported that Senator Jon Ossoff of Georgia is seeking a Republican co-sponsor to back his ethics legislation. He’s likely to face opposition from his own party.

Pelosi’s husband bought $11 million in tech stocks last spring and earned $5 million in profits, even as his wife was working to pass Big Tech bills in Congress.
