Bipartisan group introduces bill to ban congressional stock trading

John,

We’re reaching out with some big news: on Wednesday, a bipartisan group of Congress members introduced the Restore Trust in Congress Act, which would ban congressional stock trading!

This is a huge step forward in our fight to ban members of Congress from trading stocks—and a big development in our work for an ethical government.

For years now, suspiciously timed stock trades have eroded public trust in members of Congress.

That’s why CREW’s been leading the fight for meaningful reforms to ensure public servants are working in the best interest of the people they serve—not the best interests of their stock portfolios. We’ve testified to Congress, exposed questionably-timed trades, put pressure on congressional leadership to act and more.

This is an issue that matters to a majority of the public, no matter what side of the aisle they fall on. This bill makes it clear that our representatives are listening to their constituents and taking action to restore trust in Congress.

Now is the time to get this done.

CREW strongly supports the Restore Trust in Congress Act and we’re determined to do everything we can to help get this bill passed.

Thanks,
