Applaud House Democrats for Pushing a Stock Trading Ban

Hi friend,

In case you missed it, House Democrats are taking a major step to crack down on corruption in Washington — by launching a discharge petition to force a vote on a bill banning stock trading for members of Congress, the president, the vice president, and their immediate families.

Led by Democrats like House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Rep. Joe Morelle, this push is all about restoring trust and ending one of the most obvious conflicts of interest in politics. When elected officials can trade individual stocks while shaping laws, budgets, and investigations, it creates a rigged system — and everyday people are right to demand better.

Republicans are offering a watered-down version full of loopholes. Democrats are fighting for the real deal: a stock trading ban that actually prevents public office from being used for personal profit.

✍️ Add your name to applaud House Democrats for putting integrity first and pushing to ban stock trading in Congress.

Thank you for standing with us!

In solidarity,
