It\u2019s just wrong,\u201d Senator Hawley said. \u201cMembers of Congress should be focused on delivering results for their constituents, not returns on investments. It\u2019s time to find out where members stand. It\u2019s time we restore trust in Congress and ban all members from trading and holding stocks.\u201d\n\nThe PELOSI Act would ban lawmakers and their spouses from purchasing, selling or holding individual stocks for the duration of the lawmaker\u2019s time in office. Lawmakers would be allowed to invest in diversified mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, or U.S. Treasury bonds while in office.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T18:48:13Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-advances-pelosi-act-to-ban-congressional-stock-trading-out-of-committee/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.519528217613697, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
