What this bill would do

The Restore Trust in Government Act aims to prohibit specific high-ranking officials from owning or trading certain financial assets. These "covered individuals" include Members of Congress, the President, the Vice President, and their spouses and dependents. The bill restricts the ownership and trading of "covered investments," which include securities, commodities, and futures. To comply, these individuals must divest their holdings within a specific timeframe. The act also establishes penalties for those who violate these new trading and ownership restrictions.
