Hi John,
A bill to ban Congressional stock trading has taken a major step forward
π₯³! The HONEST Act ([ [link removed] ]previously known as the ETHICS Act) has passed out
of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and
will now go to the full Senate for a vote. The bill had bipartisan
support, with Senator Josh Hawley, a Republican from Missouri, being one
of the strongest supporters.Β
If passed, this bill would prevent members of Congress, the President and
the Vice President from buying "securities, commodities, futures, options,
trusts and other comparable holdings." Or, in plain language, members of
Congress would no longer be able to enrich themselves off the industries
they are supposed to regulate.

This progress was made possible thanks to the work of countless
organizations, including ours. RepresentUs supporters and outreach teams
have sent 35,000 messages to representatives and senators about
Congressional stock trading, and those messages have made a difference! We
are one step closer to this commonsense reform.Β
But the work isnβt over yet. [ [link removed] ]Tell your Senators that you want them to
vote to ban Congressional stock trading.Β
