ADD YOUR NAME: Prohibit Members of Congress from Owning or Trading Individual Stocks

Earlier this week, I stood with my colleagues in calling on House leadership to bring legislation to the House floor that would prevent members of Congress from owning or trading individual stocks.

In addition to calling for this crucial legislation to be brought to a vote, I am a proud cosponsor of the TRUST in Congress Act, which would prevent members of Congress — as well as their dependent children and spouses — from investing in individual stocks while in office.

This kind of common-sense reform has widespread bipartisan support from both sitting lawmakers and the public. It is unacceptable for members of Congress to use privileged information for profit, and there is no reason that investments should take priority over the needs of constituents.

Our democracy only works if the public believes their representatives work for the American people, not for themselves. If you agree, please add your name to my petition right away to show that this legislation has strong grassroots support.

Thank you,
Kathleen
