John,
Senator Dave McCormick invested between $500,000 and $1.25 million in Bitcoin — and then voted to advance a crypto industry-backed bill out of committee.
This looks like a serious conflict of interest. And Senator McCormick isn’t alone in making some curiously well-timed financial decisions.
In April, executive branch officials and congressional aides sold off tens of thousands of dollars in stocks just days before Trump’s tariff announcement caused the market to plummet.
We’ve also seen reports that Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene bought between $21,000 and $315,000 in stocks the day before Trump paused his tariffs, which caused her investments to surge.
John, we shouldn’t have to wonder if government officials are using nonpublic information to buy and sell stocks.
CREW is working to restore faith and transparency in our elected officials and ensure they are working in the best interest of the people — not personal profit.
That’s why we’re calling on Congress to finally pass a total ban on congressional stock and crypto trading. If you’re with us, sign our petition now and demand accountability →
Thank you,
CREW HQ
