The STOCK Act 2.0 aims to strengthen ethics rules and increase transparency for federal officials, including banning stock trading by Congress members and senior government employees. This bill would require disclosure of payments from the federal government, extend stock trading restrictions to federal judges and Federal Reserve officials, impose penalties for violations, and mandate electronic filing of financial disclosures to facilitate public access. Given the importance of maintaining public trust in government institutions and addressing potential conflicts of interest, I urge you to support the STOCK Act 2.0 to promote integrity and accountability among our nation's leaders. Increasing transparency through measures like this bill is crucial for a well-functioning democracy.
