An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Pass legislation now to ban Congressional stock trading!

523 so far! Help us get to 1,000 signers!

Right now, members of the House and the Senate have access to an enormous amount of information about our economy and business environment that isn’t available to the public. Existing ethics laws don’t go far enough to stop senators and representatives from using the information you receive in the course of your legislative duties for personal profit. As a voter and your constituent, I’m urging you to do everything in your power to pass legislation that bans members of Congress from buying or selling individual stocks while they’re in office. This is a bipartisan issue that the majority of Americans support—and you should too. The House needs to pass H.R. 336: the TRUST in Congress Act and H.R. 6490: Banning Insider Trading in Congress Act. Senators should support S. 3494: the Ban Congressional Stock Trading Act and S. 3504: the Banning Insider Trading in Congress Act.  This is critical if Congress is going to start to earn back our trust. Thanks.
