House Speaker Mike Johnson said that members of Congress should be able to continue owning stocks.
He suggested that a stock trading ban could discourage people from running for office.
Earlier this year, Johnson expressed support for a ban, citing the “appearance of impropriety.”



Don’t let this pedophile protector fool you, the bill states they can only have INVESTMENT accounts like the rest of us have. Mutual funds, 401k, IRA.
They SHOULD NOT be able to trade stocks as they are insiders and that is a felony for the rest of us who aren’t politicians.
Very cut and dry what he is saying, he wants to continue to scam us and do insider trading, while the rest of us struggle to gain 4-13% a year in growth.
