As members of Congress debate whether lawmakers and their spouses should play the stock market, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband, Paul Pelosi, a venture capitalist, continues to regularly buy and sell stocks and stock options.
Pelosi has access to confidential intelligence and the power to affect — with words or actions — the fortunes of companies in which her husband invests and trades.
When asked in December 2021 whether members of Congress should even be allowed to trade stocks, Pelosi answered in the affirmative.
"We are a free-market economy. They should be able to participate in that," she said.
