only being allowed to invest in index funds with a notification of intent to buy/sell at least 1-2 months in advance should both be implemented. From there figure how to close loopholes of using spouces/family to circumvent. Itll never happen but thats what it should be. Public servants should be in office to help people, but its all power and money driven only. Every single polotician is guilty of this

Offcourse it won’t pass. That’s not the point. The point is seeing who votes NO and then asking them WHY. And that is IF the speaker even lets it get to a vote.

I swear I saw a stat that showed Pelosi’s lifetime rate of return on her investments is like 3 times that of Warren Buffet. No F’N way shes a better investor than he is. Wonder what her secret is?

She’s posturing.
Besides, you can’t propose a bill without a catchy acronym. Anybody got anything that would spell PELOSI?

As much as I really can’t stand her policies most of the time, I really have to give her props. She told the establishment to go fuck themselves and took control of her office. Pelosi wanted her to wait in line and earn her way to prominence, but AOC was having none of that bullshit.
And…. she occasionally has a good idea, like this one.

It’s a bipartisan problem, both parties will find a common ground by rejecting this unAmerican bill, which is bad for America, American people and kills Bald Eagles.
Also she gets deported.

Congress voting for its own rules is the dupe of all dupes. AOC doing this to show face and nothing more. The people that brought her into the fold are the biggest criminals in govt.

Wait a second what’s to stop them from having their spouse or relative or even a friend by the stock for them? They will find a way around it. That’s what they do.!!

Love it but just out of curiosity, how would it work where a representative’s spouse is in finance? I ask because Pelosi seems to be the poster-child for this issue even though Paul Pelosi has his own investment firm.
If it’s good for the common person it won’t pass
Shes a true patriot
