| It’s been more than two weeks since Congressman Rob Bresnahan was caught on tape admitting to having direct discussions about his upcoming stock positions with his financial advisor.
The audio shows that Bresnahan – who campaigned on a promise to ban congressional stock trading – spent months lying to Northeastern Pennsylvanians by claiming that he did not have “any dialogues” with his financial advisor about his trading activity.
Yet Bresnahan has refused to comment and has not answered any questions about his latest stock trading scandal. Northeastern Pennsylvanians deserve to know:
- Why did Bresnahan lie to Northeastern Pennsylvanians when he said “I do not have any dialogues with my financial advisers” during a telephone town hall?
- Why did Bresnahan have dialogues with his financial advisor about his upcoming stock positions while actively voting in Congress?
- Did Bresnahan speak to his financial advisor before dumping up to $130,000 worth of Medicaid-provider stocks ahead of his vote to gut Medicaid?
DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Congressman Bresnahan seemingly has plenty of time to speak with his financial advisor about his stock positions, but he apparently doesn’t have the time to address his own constituents. It’s time for Bresnahan to come clean to the people of Northeastern Pennsylvania.” |
