John,
Last August, DFA members stood side by side with Alexandria Ocasio Cortez
and Robert Reich as we pushed Congress to pass the Ban Conflicted Trading
Act, legislation that will keep members of Congress from using their
privileged status to profit off trading individual stocks.
Now our campaign is finally gaining traction.

But here's the thing: We aren't going to win this fight by sitting back
and counting on politicians in Washington, D.C. to act on their own
accord. It's going to take a true grassroots movement to put enough
pressure on elected officials to make this ban a reality.

to stop blatant insider trading. Help DFA capitalize on this great news by
adding your name and telling Congress to pass the Ban Conflicted Trading
Act NOW >>

Momentum for banning Members of Congress and their families from trading
individual stocks has been growing for years, but up until now the
establishment of both parties has refused to take the idea seriously.
The fact that they feel enough pressure to come out in support of it is a
testament to the power of our organizing.
To make sure that insider politicians don’t offer up a watered-down ban on
trading stocks, we must show that there is widespread support for Congress
to be bold and use their power to actually stop this corrupt practice.

or trading individual stocks.

Thank you for taking action. Together we will keep politicians from
enriching themselves at the expense of everyone else.
