Stock trading: the House ban
What they say
In the September 27 debate he said he voted to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks.
What the record shows ·
He voted Yea on July 22, 2026 when the House passed H.R. 7008, the Stop Insider Trading Act, 232 to 198 (Roll Call 280). The House text bars members, spouses and dependent children from buying publicly traded stock and requires public notice 7 to 14 days before any sale. It has not passed the Senate.
Limit: The bill he voted for bars new stock purchases; it lets members keep stock they hold and sell it after public notice, so it is narrower than a ban on all trading. It is not law. This card is about his vote, not about his own holdings.
