Members of Congress are on a summer stock shopping spree — and still violating a financial disclosure law — amid a reinvigorated movement to ban congressional stock trading.

Three members of the House of Representatives appear to have violated the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act this week by filing required reports late — some as much as two years past a federally mandated deadline.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), more than a dozen other members of Congress continue trading stocks and securities, even in the immediate two weeks after the Ending Trading and Holdings in Congressional Stocks (ETHICS) Act passed out of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security. ...

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) teared up when asked about the conspiracy theorist convicted of brutally clobbering her husband.

As numerous members of Congress call for a ban on lawmakers and their spouses trading stocks, House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi's household just made a massive purchase in tech stocks.

Pelosi (D-CA) disclosed on Thursday that her husband, Paul Pelosi, purchased up to $1 million in Microsoft stock and up to $500,000 in Apple stock by exercising stock options, according to federal financial documents reviewed by Raw Story.

Earlier this month, Pelosi disclosed that her husband sold off between $500,000 and $1 million worth of Apple stock to make a contribution to her alma mater, Trinity College....
