Plain-English Summary

Members of Congress would be prohibited from buying and selling individual stocks, bonds, and other securities while serving in office, though they could still invest in diversified funds like mutual funds or index funds. The goal is to prevent lawmakers from potentially profiting from insider information they gain through their work in government or making decisions that benefit their personal investments rather than the public interest. This would apply to Congress members and their spouses, with some exceptions for investments made before taking office.
