A Republican senator says he believes that President Joe Biden\u2019s call for a ban on congressional stock trading on his way out of the White House is a \u201cdig\u201d at former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who has come under scrutiny for years over her husband\u2019s successful investments.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think (Biden) and Nancy Pelosi are getting along very well right now after Pelosi fired him from being president,\u201d Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) told<\/a> Alabama Daily News<\/em>. \u201cI don\u2019t know how she was able to do that, but she convinced him to get out of the race, which he should have, but it was her.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nancy Pelosi and her husband, Paul Pelosi, have achieved some of the highest stock market returns among members of Congress, with their trades reportedly yielding returns exceeding 720% over the past decade. As of August, the Pelosis\u2019 estimated net worth exceeds $230 million, the outlet noted.<\/p>\n

Pelosi has been hesitant to back legislation that would completely prohibit members of Congress from trading stocks. In 2021, she told reporters, \u201cWe are a free market economy,\u201d adding that members of Congress \u201cshould be able to participate in that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think while she\u2019s laying up somewhere in Germany \u2013 she unfortunately fell and hurt her leg (and) had to have an operation \u2013 he decided while she was gone, after 50 years by the way of him being up there in Washington, D.C., (that) now it\u2019s time, as I\u2019m going out the door, to stop stock trading,\u201d Tuberville said.<\/p>\n

The Alabama senator has had success of his own in the stock market, but he has repeatedly said he does not have any direct involvement in the makeup of his portfolio.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve said all along that I don\u2019t get anything up here that gives me an opportunity to make money on stocks any more than anybody,\u201d he told ADN. \u201cI don\u2019t do it myself, I\u2019ve got people that do it. I don\u2019t get involved in that, I don\u2019t understand what\u2019s the big deal. I guess there are people that have made money somehow, some way; I didn\u2019t come up here to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n
