Ex-House Dem who ripped congressional stock trading ban as 'bull----' changes her tune in comeback bid
Former Congresswoman Elaine Luria’s record on congressional stock trading — and a net worth that skyrocketed during her time in office — is clashing with the stance she’s touting as she pursues office in one of the country’s most competitive districts.
Luria, the Democrat who previously represented Virginia’s 2nd Congressional District from 2019 to 2023, told attendees at a recent candidate forum that she would "support" legislation to ban members of Congress from owning or trading stocks.
