Insider Trading and Congressional Members: Allegations of insider trading among members of Congress have long fueled suspicions of corruption and cronyism within the political establishment. While lawmakers are subject to insider trading laws like the STOCK Act, which prohibits them from trading stocks based on non-public information acquired through their official duties, critics argue that loopholes and lax enforcement allow them to exploit their privileged access to information for personal gain. High-profile cases, such as the controversy surrounding stock trades made by senators ahead of the COVID-19 pandemic, have reignited calls for stronger ethics regulations and greater transparency in government.
