Dear John,
Let’s make it clear: public service should never be for personal profit.
Members of Congress are entrusted with shaping policies that affect millions of Americans. Yet many lawmakers continue to trade individual stocks, creating serious conflicts of interest and eroding public trust in our government. Recent reports reveal that members of Congress traded $113 million worth of defense stocks in the months leading up to major military funding decisions. This raises alarming questions about whether they’re working for the public or their own portfolios.
Read more about the petition.
We call on Congress to pass legislation banning members of Congress from trading individual stocks. This common-sense reform would help ensure that our representatives are working for the people—not their own wallets.
Sign this petition to demand a ban on congressional stock trading now.
