The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee recently advanced a bill that would prevent members of Congress, the president, and the vice president from stock trading while in office.
However, I read in a news article by the New York Times that, "The bill passed the committee with the support of every Democrat and only one Republican, its sponsor, who modified it to shield President Trump from a divestment requirement."
No shields. Everyone should be held accountable by the bill, especially the highest-ranking official.
Please insist that the modification be removed before it goes to vote. Then vote YES.
Thank you.
