Majority Leader Eric Cantor and House Republicans caved to pressure from right-wing special interest groups, going behind closed doors to water down the STOCK Act, a bill banning insider trading for Members of Congress.
At the last minute, Cantor and Republicans carved it. This is huge unacceptable to the American people.
Members of Congress shouldn't be able to use insider knowledge gained as they representing the American People to engage in insider trading and unfairly make millions on the stock market.
Sign the petition calling out Cantor for watering down this vital accountability and transparency bill because of special interest demands!
Insider trading in Congress must come to an end, and the American people's interests should come before special interests.
Dear Congressman,
I was shocked to hear that you caved to special interest pressure to weaken protections against insider trading in Congress. You should not have watered down the STOCK Act just to appease special interest supporters, which is vital to achieving transparency for Members of Congress.
