Preparing for the Final Collapse of the Soviet Union and the Dissolution of the Russian Federation - Hudson Dec 2022

The goal of this policy memo is not to advocate for regime change in Russia—this will be a matter for the Russian people. …

These97 Members of Congress Reported Trades in Companies Influenced by Their Committees

 

At least 97 current members of Congress bought or sold stock, bonds or other financial assets that intersected with their congressional work or reported similar transactions by their spouse or a dependent child, an analysis by The New York Times has found.

 

U.S. lawmakers are not banned from investing in any company, including those that could be affected by their decisions. But the trading patterns uncovered by the Times analysis underscore longstanding concerns about the potential for conflicts of interest or use of inside information by members of Congress, government ethics experts say.

 

Times reporters analyzed transactions between 2019 and 2021 using a database of members’ financial filings called Capitol Trades created by 2iQ Research. They matched the trades against relevant committee assignments and the dates of hearings and congressional investigations. …

Congress has an insider trading problem. Congresspeople should not become master day traders the moment after swearing in, exploiting privileged information for personal profit. #Kennedy24

Nancy Pelosi

 

REPRESENTATIVE, D-CALIF.

 

Ms. Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, is a real estate and technology investor who bought and sold $25 million to $81 million worth of stocks, options and other financial assets between 2019 and 2021, according to public filings. Ms. Pelosi, the speaker of the House, has said she is uninvolved with her husband’s investing. But her wide-ranging influence over policy and the scale of her husband’s financial transactions have generated intense criticism about the lax nature of rules governing investing by members of Congress.

 

The speaker does not sit on any legislative committees, but she has immense power over which legislation makes it to the House floor — including various proposals being considered to regulate stock trading by members of Congress and their immediate families. After initially opposing stricter measures, Ms. Pelosi said in February that she would support them if federal judges were held to them also; a bill passed by Congress this past spring evened out disclosure requirements between the two branches of government.

Mitch McConnell

 

SENATOR, R-KY.

 

While Mr. McConnell does not own stock in individual companies, his wife, Elaine Chao, who once served as the secretary of labor and of transportation, bought or sold shares in companies in three different industries. None of those companies obviously intersected with Mr. McConnell’s work on the Senate agriculture, rules or appropriations committees.

 

In a news conference in February, Mr. McConnell said that he encouraged members not to own stock in individual companies because of the appearance of potential conflicts. He also indicated that he might be open to legislation banning member stock trading.
