Tom Kean Backs Stock Ban While Trading Stocks

“Rep. Tom Kean Jr. (R-NJ) wants his constituents to know: He doesn’t approve of lawmakers trading individual stocks,” the Washington Sun reports.

“In taxpayer-funded mailers sent this month to residents of New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District, his office makes clear: ‘Kean backed legislation to prohibit members of Congress from trading individual stocks.'”

“Unmentioned in the ‘public trust’-themed mailer is the fact that Kean ranks among Congress’ most prolific stock traders.”
