Fischer Cosponsors Ricketts’ Stop Insider Trading Act

“Public trust in elected officials is essential to our democratic process, and those who sent us here deserve to know Members of Congress are not profiting from the positions they hold. The Stop Insider Trading Act ensures Members cannot use insider knowledge for financial gain, and offers a clear, common-sense approach to how Congress regulates itself. I thank Senator Ricketts and House Administration Committee Chairman Steil for their leadership in restoring trust in those who serve.”
