This bill would ban Members of Congress, their spouses, and dependent children from owning or trading individual stocks or similar financial products while in office, aiming to reduce conflicts of interest and build public trust. Current members would have 180 days to sell these investments, and new members, or those who acquire stocks while in office, would have 90 days to divest. Investments in diversified mutual funds and government bonds are still allowed. There are limited exceptions for certain work situations and regulated family trusts. Violations would result in a 10% penalty and forfeiture of profits, with all penalties posted online for transparency.
