John,
Just 3 in 10 Americans believe Congress acts in their best interests.
Among young Americans, that number drops to less than 2 in 10.
We’re past calling this troubling. In fact, what’s most troubling is that you’re probably not even shocked to read these numbers.
We’ve grown so accustomed to the idea that our “system is broken.” That it’s one where corporate money speaks louder than the public voice.
What’s worse is the erosion of public trust comes at a time when the American people are stretched to the brink – and counting on Congress to push back on an authoritarian White House. Folks are rightly enraged to hear about members of Congress raking in cash trading stocks of the very companies they’re supposed to regulate.
It doesn’t have to be this way, John.
This is a big reason why I divested from all my company-specific, publicly traded stock holdings the moment I took office. And I’m proud to co-lead the Restore Trust in Congress Act, to ban stock trading in Congress outright.
The bill has just been introduced in the House, and momentum is building. But to get it out of committee and onto the floor, we need real grassroots pressure. That’s where you come in:
This isn't a cure-all, but it’s the bare-minimum in restoring public trust. Add your name today to show your support: no more stock trading in Congress. [[link removed]]
