Banning congressional stock trading has been a topic of bipartisan conversation on Capitol Hill this week.
But there’s one member who has been noticeably silent: Tom Kean Jr.
Reminder: Kean Jr. campaigned on a promise to ban congressional stock trading and place his millions of dollars in assets into a blind trust. But recent reporting revealed he has broken that promise to New Jersey voters.
Why won’t Tom Kean Jr. honor the promises he made New Jersey voters, and why has he been so silent on this issue?
DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Tom Kean Jr. continues to profit off the stock market despite running on a promise to ban congressional stock trading, and he has failed to put his assets in a blind trust more than two and a half years after he pledged that he would. He has broken the trust of New Jersey voters and turned into the exact kind of self-serving politician he warned about on the campaign trail.”
