ICYMI: Bennett & Pou’s Democrat Party Blocks Bill to Ban Congressional Stock Trading

This week, Rebecca Bennett and Nellie Pou’s Democrat Party blocked the Stop Insider Trading Act, protecting politicians who get rich trading stocks on information the public never sees.

While Tom Kean Jr. and House Republicans have fought for a ban on members of Congress, their spouses, and their kids buying individual stocks, Rebecca Bennett and Nellie Pou’s Party fought to keep Washington’s insider trading racket open for business. New Jersey families deserve representatives who work for them, not their stock portfolios.

“Washington Democrats had a chance to stop members of Congress from getting rich off insider information, and they said no. House Republicans are fighting to clean it up. Rebecca Bennett and Nellie Pou’s Party is fighting to keep the scam going.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
