Dan Crenshaw drops wild rant on proposed congressional stock trading ban
- Texas representative Dan Crenshaw slammed a proposal calling for a ban on congressional members trading on the stock market.
The article from The Houston Chronicle discusses U.S. Representative Dan Crenshaw's proposal to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks. Crenshaw, a Republican from Texas, introduced the "Bipartisan Restoring Faith in Government Act" which aims to prevent conflicts of interest by prohibiting congressional members, their spouses, and dependent children from owning or trading stocks in individual companies. Instead, they would be allowed to invest in mutual funds, ETFs, or a blind trust. This legislative move comes in response to public and ethical concerns about insider trading and the potential for lawmakers to profit from their access to non-public information. The bill has garnered bipartisan support, reflecting a growing consensus on the need for stricter financial regulations for elected officials. However, the article notes that similar proposals have faced resistance in the past, with some arguing that such restrictions could deter qualified individuals from running for office.
