Senate fails to advance bill banning lawmaker stock trading
Original: Lawmakers’ stock trading bill falls short in Senate
A bill that would restrict members of Congress from trading individual stocks failed to advance in the Senate. The legislation had been pushed by backers of a congressional stock trading ban, a proposal with broad public support across party lines. Its defeat leaves ethics advocates frustrated and keeps the issue alive as a campaign talking point ahead of future votes.
Why now: A widely supported government ethics measure stalled in the Senate, drawing attention to congressional accountability.
