House passes GOP bill tying new voter ID rules to congressional stock trading restrictions
The U.S. House passed a GOP bill combining new voter ID requirements with restrictions on congressional stock trading. The measure, sponsored by Rep. Bryan Steil, requires voters to present state-issued IDs and prohibits lawmakers from purchasing certain stocks, but faces potential obstacles in the Senate. Democrats criticized the bill for removing funding for voter IDs and exceeding existing state laws.
