Reps. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.) and Chip Roy (R-Texas) have reintroduced legislation effectively banning members of Congress—as well as their spouses and dependent children—from trading stocks while they are in office.

The bipartisan duo of lawmakers introduced the new bill, titled the “Transparent Representation Upholding Service and Trust (TRUST) in Congress Act,” on Jan. 12.
