EXACTLY! This is why restrictions on congressional stock trading are picking up steam. Voters have a right to know that lawmakers are using their influence and information for the public's good--not their own wallets. It's common sense and it's good policy!

If as an NFL player we aren’t allowed to bet on games(which I fully agree with), why are government officials allowed to buy stocks/stock options?

[Delaney Marsco @DelaneyMarsco]

NO it does not!!!! It does not "require" the justices do anything!!!!😩

[NBC News @NBCNews]

BREAKING: The Supreme Court says it has adopted a new code of conduct following allegations of ethics lapses.

The code requires justices to “avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety in all activities.” https://t.co/ynZOybrOaa

.@CampaignLegal's @DelaneyMarsco writing here about one of our core areas of focus - #Ethics in government. Please read and share!

[Campaign Legal Center @CampaignLegal]

The Ethics in Government Act (EIGA) was passed 45 years ago, but recent scandals make it clear that federal government ethics laws badly need reform.

As CLC's @DelaneyMarsco shares in @NewsweekOpinion, stronger rules and meaningful enforcement are vital.

Hard to respect the integrity of a court that refuses to abide by even the barest minimum ethics requirements. Their rulings today/yesterday will help keep poor people poor & perpetuate discrimination, while the justices can accept $ and opportunities unavailable to anyone else.

[Sam Levine @srl]

Chief Justice Roberts concludes the final opinion of the term with a plea to respect the integrity of the court. Says it is "disturbing" that recent decisions that accuse the court of going beyond its proper role are "disturbing."

"But the question of what’s actually happening in the shadows transcends partisanship. And the closely divided House makes it all the more important to have an independent entity to investigate allegations of misconduct." https://t.co/IHDHNQfdnZ

[Delaney Marsco @DelaneyMarsco]

The editorial at the @washingtonpost agrees:https://t.co/wCExXNViuo

[Delaney Marsco @DelaneyMarsco]

We asked the House to strengthen OCE, not gut it. The public is listening. Will @SpeakerMcCarthy?

[Campaign Legal Center @CampaignLegal]

The #SupremeCourt, one of America's most powerful institutions, has zero infrastructure in place to investigate ethics violations.

#SCOTUS must create internal ethics standards and install compliance officials.

This heartbreaking body cam footage shows further evidences that the people being prosecuted for illegal voting in Florida did not know that they were ineligible and therefore are not guilty of the charges against them. https://t.co/DeiZOeuZTx

[Delaney Marsco @DelaneyMarsco]

Members of Congress can trade stocks with few restrictions--all while having privileged access to (and creating!) market-moving information. We need reform now. From @nytimes: https://t.co/Bdqd3YTeAh

"What we've seen over the last decade is that it's really easy for wealthy individuals and corporations to spend a ton of money in elections while still concealing their identity," said @CampaignLegal's @ErinChlopak. https://t.co/BA3E27mfA1

Did you know up to 18 million Americans with past convictions can vote RIGHT NOW – they just don’t know it – because the voting eligibility laws in every state can be confusing? @CampaignLegal is here to help.

[Aaron McKean @Run421]

Today, I testified before the @PhillyEthicsBd about how the city’s elections are funded. Specifically, I talked about a way that super PACs are brazenly skirting campaign finance laws to coordinate with candidates: redboxing.

Here’s how #redboxing undermines our democracy🧵

[Campaign Legal Center @CampaignLegal]

Voters have a right to know that their elected officials are serving the public interest, not their own wallets. @kedric_payne, CLC's senior director of #ethics, explains what the #STOCKAct is & how proposed updates could curb insider trading by members of Congress.

[Roger Sollenberger @SollenbergerRC]

New: @CampaignLegal complaint against WinRed, the Republican online fundraising platform that has processed nearly $3 billion in 3 years, while somehow reporting less than $3,000 in expenses. How does WinRed work? Who does it pay? No clue, folks. https://t.co/CMZjQakunk

[Campaign Legal Center @CampaignLegal]

Voters have a right to know that public officials are working in their best interests. 10 years after the #STOCKAct was enacted, many members of Congress are not disclosing their stock trades on time (if at all). CLC's @kedric_payne explains the problem, & solutions. #CLCExplains

[Campaign Legal Center @CampaignLegal]

History was made today as Ketanji Brown Jackson was sworn in as the 116th Supreme Court justice. A former public defender and the first Black woman justice of #SCOTUS, she brings the Court closer to representing the diversity of the American people.

I am in Ohio today where public opinion overwhelmingly favors legalized abortion. But the gerrymandered legislature is poised to criminalize abortion without exceptions, including for rape, incest and a woman’s life.
