Senate Votes to Ban Insider Trading by Lawmakers

The U.S. Senate passed a bill to ban insider trading by lawmakers by a 96 to 3 vote, Roll Call reports.

The bill “engendered a broader debate over public ethics, including issues such as whether lawmakers should own stocks at all, given their ability to affect individual companies.”
