Hawley's bill is much better though. I'm glad he didn't water it down to make Ossoff happy.
> Ossoff's bill would leave oversight to congressional ethics committees
Lol, ok buddy. We've all seen that congress in not able to conduct meaningful self-oversight.
> violations of Hawley's measure would require lawmakers or their spouses to disgorge any investment to the U.S. Treasury
Unlike Ossoff's bill, that's some serious teeth.
- allemagne 5y agoEven better, there's zero accountability for himself or any of the 50 republican senators who passed on cosigning Ossoff's bill when this also goes nowhere. It's nice not being in power!
- nostromo 5y agoEven better, there's zero accountability for himself or any of the 50 democratic senators who passed on cosigning Hawley's bill when this also goes nowhere. The senate is 50/50, this logic works both ways. Either party could vote for the other’s bill tomorrow and be done with it. I’d prefer the Dems work with Hawley to pass the better bill.
