**Lawmakers Call for Passage of PELOSI Act to Ban Congressional Stock Trading Following Nancy Pelosi’s Retirement**
*Breitbart | November 6, 2025 | Sean Moran*
On Thursday, lawmakers renewed calls for the passage of the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act in honor of Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) recent retirement.
Senator Josh Hawley commented to reporters, “She’ll be the opportunity to finally ban stock trading by members of Congress. Nobody made more, I think, than her.”
In April, Hawley reintroduced the PELOSI Act, which aims to prohibit lawmakers and their spouses from purchasing or selling individual stocks. The proposed legislation seeks to eliminate conflicts of interest and promote transparency within Congress.
