On July 30th, according to the AXIOS website, US Republican Senator Josh Hawley's bill to ban the stock trading of members of Congress is becoming a major problem for the Republican Party. Several people familiar with the matter said that Hawley needs Democratic support to pass the committee vote scheduled for Wednesday due to objections from Homeland Security Committee Chairperson Rand Paul. Therefore, Hawley agreed to include language that would also ban the president and vice president in the bill, which would prohibit the president and vice president from making certain investments, expanding the scope originally limited to members of Congress. The White House Office of Legislative Affairs began to fight back after learning of the matter, lobbying against the stock trading ban, sources said.
