Lawmakers on Thursday called for the passage of the PELOSI Act to ban congressional stock in honor of Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) retirement. “She’ll be the opportunity to finally ban stock trading by members of Congress. Nobody made more, I think, than her,” Hawley told reporters on Thursday. [.] Hawley in April reintroduced the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act, which would ban lawmakers and their spouses from purchasing or selling individual stocks.
