CNN: Congressional Insider-Trading Law Has Family Loophole

EXCERPT

The Senate bill did include a provision that covered spouses and children, Robert Walker, an ethics attorney and former chief counsel for both the House and Senate Ethics Committees explained to CNN.

However, he said, when the House version was written by House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., this language was shifted to a different section of the bill.

In doing so, spouses and dependent children essentially became exempt from the reporting requirements.
