NO DELAY on vote to ban Members of Congress from trading stocks

I am writing to ask you to let Senate leadership and Senator Jeff Merkley know that a delay to the vote on the bill to regulate Congressional stock trading is completely unacceptable. After the hard work that has been done this year to put together the bipartisan legislation and a recent commitment by Speaker Pelosi to have a vote on the bill by the end of this month, Senator Merkley’s push to delay a vote until after the election puts its passage at risk. Voters would like to know where their elected officials stand on transparency before the election. The passage of this bill would also increase the confidence that people have in government, which is currently at a very low level, and would help to get out the vote for Democrats. Please tell Senator Schumer that your constituents expect a reversal of this decision and a vote on the bill before this month is out.
