Investigate potential insider trading by President on tariff announcements

To: Rep. Torres, Sen. Schiff, Sen. Padilla

From: A constituent in Chino, CA

April 10

It is deeply concerning that President Trump appeared to leverage his position to potentially manipulate markets for personal gain mere hours before announcing a major policy shift. This raises serious ethical and legal questions around insider trading and market manipulation that warrant thorough investigation. I urge you to uphold the integrity of our financial systems and markets by pursuing an independent inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the President's social media posts and tariff pause announcement. The American people deserve full transparency and accountability to ensure no laws were broken and that the President did not improperly enrich himself or tip off others. Protecting fair markets from manipulation and abuse of power should be a top priority. I implore you to take appropriate action to safeguard public trust.
