There's nothing that forbids lawmakers from trading shares of companies that could be affected by laws they pass . But even more casual stock trading that may not seem particularly sinister can create conflicts of interest — or the appearance of conflicts. That is precisely what I wanted to avoid when I first started running for Congress in 2017.
It is unethical for them to deal with the stock market!
This was not allowed once upon a time and you in congress change the rules so you could profit...do not trust any of congress anymore. The truth is... corporations bought congress many years ago and it now serves their masters not the public who voted for them.
Agreed… too much potential for insider trading and corporate influence…
