The House on Wednesday passed a bill that would ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks as well as mandate that voters provide photo identification "as a condition of casting a ballot" by a 232-198 vote.
Thirteen Democrats voted with all Republicans in favor of the bill.
The Stop Insider Trading Act, championed by House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil of Wisconsin, would prohibit members of Congress, their spouses and their dependent children from buying new stocks.
The bill would, however, allow lawmakers to keep the stocks they already own.
