GOP Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, who is pushing for a stock trading ban in Congress, has invested $250,001 to $500,000 in a private equity firm focused on oil and energy. Her office says it's not a "stock." But it illustrates the limitations of a stock trading ban:

This is incredible work. In a just world it would win some major reporting awards. I’m saying that now bc I don’t think it will. There’s a particular kind of scoop you only get by being a really effing good beat reporter for a long time who sources trust. Investigative reporting doesn’t prize that.
