The Pelosi Act
-
What a great name
On Tuesday, Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., introduced the PELOSI Act, officially the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, requiring members and their spouses to divest any holdings or put them in a blind trust within six months of entering office.
"Members of Congress and their spouses shouldn’t be using their position to get rich on the stock market - today l’m introducing legislation to BAN stock trading & ownership by members of Congress. I call it the PELOSI Act," he wrote on Twitter Tuesday.

Good legislation, at least in intent. I'm sure it will need a little tweaking, but something must be done.
And I'd love to see the Demonrats come out against it.

You know...Maybe in 25 years, we'll find out why San Fran Nan didn't want additional security at the Capitol on 1/6. Or how she managed to keep such a tight hold on her caucus.
I think Pelosi has always been very good at working in the shadows
