Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene disclosed stock transactions made just before President Trump's announcement to pause global tariffs, leading to a surge in the stock market. This has reignited debates on the ethics of stock trading among Congress members, particularly as past calls for a complete ban on such trades went unmet. Despite public polls showing overwhelming support for regulating these trades, members like Greene continue to engage in significant stock market activities, creating a perception of conflict of interest and mistrust in political transparency.
It's beyond ludicrous that any member of Congress can play in the Great Casino. We've been through this once before, when it was revealed that a few of them made some serious bank during burgeoning pandemic.
Members of Congress are required to report their stock trades within 30 days...but they only have to mark down broad ranges rather than specific dollar amounts.
