Let’s face it: fartoo many members of Congress grossly enrich themselves through insider trading.
This week, I was proud to sign on to Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL)’s discharge petition barring members of Congress from engaging in stock trading.
The sad thing is that insider trading is already illegal. Private American citizens can’t engage in insider trading — so why do members of Congress think it’s okay?! I don’t know about you, but I think it’s absolutely insane that we have to push through a petition barring our nation’s lawmakers from engaging in illegal activity.
We shouldn’t have to force our nation’s lawmakers to follow the very laws they help enforce. Instead, they should be called to a higher standard and serve as exemplary citizens, NOT corrupt individuals who take advantage of the insider information they have been entrusted with as a public official.
As I have always done, I am fighting for YOU and for our body of government to serve THE PEOPLE, not themselves.
Will you stand with me against corruption in our nation’s capital? Or will you stand idly by as the Nancy Pelosis of the world continue to abuse your tax dollars for their gain? Answer my poll NOW to show you’re a true patriot!
