Just a few Years ago AOC was serving drinks and now has $27 million. It’s rampant on both sides and we will never see change until this shit stops

Well the other guy was right if you become a senator, you can have stocks but you can’t trade them any more, it should work but only if there’s good working control system

I completely agree with this! They shouldn't have to divest- but it should become stagnant during their time in Congress. How does a "civil servant" (NP) have a net worth of over 260Million?

Imminently reasonable bill. Keep what you have when you step into office but you’re banned from adding or subtracting to your portfolio/businesses while your in office and for 3 years after you leave

1) only be allowed to buy mutual funds or ETFs. 2) 30 day wait period when the want to buy/selll 3). Keep what you came in with (stocks,private businesses)

The corruption of our government is really disheartening , but the problem is that it’s a rich man’s club like he says and nothing is done to correct t the problem.

I think a simple solution to this would be that they're not allowed to sell short term with capital gains, so they'd be required to hold their investments for a minimum of 1 year.

you dont make 175 a year for 3 years and walk out after 3 years with millions in the bank if somthing isnt wrong. professional players can't gamble because insider, so gov shouldn't be able to trade

So, NANCY... if Congress is going to vote on bills that will directly benefit, idk... NVIDIA... you shouldn't get to make major investments into their stock right before that vote takes place.

The can invest in an index fund but that should be limit…no picking individual stocks and frankly I don’t think spouses should be able to either…Obviously getting insider info.

Let's go even further.....Relatives associated with bills coming across the table shouldnt be allowed to invest eithe or get jobs as CEOs at these companies as a form of quid pro quo

I’m fine with them being in a mutual fund or ETF. But buying/selling single stocks and options shouldn’t be a thing. Currently they are to disclose their purchases within 45 days or be fined.

You can trade or be an elected official end of story. Also cap salaries and all the benefits that follow after they’re out. Bring them down to a working class level.

once you get elected to office in Canvas,that is the trade-off you are giving up,no trading/selling because you’re making over 100K a year, but career polishing will find a way to circumvent that

We can play the markets also but we don’t have the intel they do. Hence the rich man and women’s club. No stock trading whilst in office including family members.
