The Resident: Insider Trading Continues with Stock Act Rollback
President Obama signed the STOCK Act with much press coverage, but a week before the most important provisions were to be enacted, he quietly gutted the Act - ultimately making it easier for members of the legislative and executive branches to participate in insider trading. The STOCK Act mandated that government workers would file their personal financial disclosure forms online, allowing for transparency, effectively making any insider trading easier to see. But Obama quietly signed legislation that now says government workers can continue to file offline, keeping their PFDs as secretive - and questionable - as ever.
