Hi, my name is [NAME], and I am a constituent from [CITY, STATE].
I am calling to urge [REPRESENTATIVE] to support the Stop Insider Trading Act (H.R. 7008).
Members of Congress receive confidential briefings and advance information that affect financial markets. Allowing lawmakers to trade individual stocks while they oversee those industries creates a clear conflict of interest and erodes public trust.
This legislation would prohibit any Member of Congress, their spouse, and their dependent children from purchasing individual stocks while the Member is in office. It would also add new public notice requirements and enhanced penalties for violations.
Americans deserve confidence that their elected officials are working in the public interest—not using their positions of power to make money in the stock market.
Please tell [REPRESENTATIVE] to support the Stop Insider Trading Act (H.R. 7008).
Thank you.
NOTE: After you make the call to your Member of Congress, please complete the form, to let us know! Keeping track of the number of calls made helps us amplify your voice on Capitol Hill.
