Watch the video here.

Key Excerpts:

• Too many people are getting rich in Congress. That has to stop. I’ve been in Congress for eight years. I’m not a millionaire, I don’t trade stocks.
• Today I’m introducing a new bill to ban corruption, insider trading, and yes—getting rich while in Congress. Here’s what it does:
• It bans stock trading by Members of Congress and their families.
• It bans lobbying for foreign adversaries after you leave Congress.
• It bans Members of Congress and their spouses from serving on corporate boards while they’re in office.
• So no more getting rich in Congress. Our leaders should be focused on serving their communities, not their stock portfolios.
