    60% confidence

  • Speaker Johnson says he probably supports a ban on congressional stock trading because it has been abused by a few bad actors who taint the practice for everyone

    60% confidence

  • Frozen congressional salaries are causing less qualified people to be willing to run for Congress because the financial sacrifice is too great

    60% confidence

  • Congress should not have any appearance of impropriety with respect to stock trading

    60% confidence
