- The representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was called by a republican colleague for recent current negotiations.
- He said that these transactions were “only another reason why” legislators should be prohibited from negotiating actions.
- Greene was the subject of a meticulous examination for the well -chronic trades carried out around Trump’s pricing movements.
First of all, it was the Democrats who made a big problem with the trading habits of actions of the representative Marjorie Taylor Greene. Now a republican colleague joins him.
“Just another reason why the trade in actions by members of the congress or their spouse should be prohibited,” wrote Mike Lawler de New York in response to a position showing that one of the purchases of recent actions in the Georgia Congress had borne fruit.
Lawler, which has no individual actions, is a co-sponsor of the law on trust in the congress, a bill to demand that the legislators and their spouses deploy actions or place them in a blind trust.
Just another reason why the exchanges of action by the members of the Congress or their spouse should be prohibited.
The appearance of the impertinity, or worse, is too large. https://t.co/h8a7zlv9su

Greene has been the subject of a meticulous examination in recent weeks for a series of well -timed trades that she has made around the pricing movements of President Donald Trump in early April.
When the equity prices began to decrease after the announcement of the “liberation day” of April 2, Greene began to invest tens of thousands of dollars in a variety of shares, continuing to do so until the equity prices are raised after Trump announced that most of these prices are interrupted for 90 days.
The deputy said that her action portfolio was managed by an external financial advisor.
“All my investments are reported in full transparency. I refuse to hide my transactions in shares in a blind trust like many others,” the Congress member said in a previously shared statement with BI. “Since my portfolio manager does my trades for me, I generally discover them when the media ask for it.”
She is not the only legislative to have bought the DIP: Democratic representative Jared Moskowitz from Florida has also done so.
But the Democrats suggested that Greene, a close ally of Trump, was perhaps aware of Trump’s price in advance. The deputy denied it.
Lawler’s post came into the heel of a quarrel between the two legislators who started Wednesday, when Greene denounced the member of the New York Congress to oppose the “Big Beautiful Bill” of the Republicans on a tax provision.
