U.S. House passes bill to curb lawmakers\' stock trading using insider information
The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would ban members of Congress, their spouses and dependent children from buying newly listed stocks. The House approved the Stop Insider Trading Act in a 232-198 vote and sent it to the Senate. The bill aims to prevent lawmakers from profiting from stock trades using insider information and would impose strict penalties for violations. Some Democrats criticised it as insufficient to address conflicts of interest.
