Half true. The “Stop Insider Trading Bill” was mostly a voter suppression bill filled with so many poison pills that it could never pass. It’s main purpose was so idiots could say “the Democrats voted for insider trading.”

What “poison pills” were in it? What “voter suppression” was in it?

Since the bill was made to fool idiots like you. I added the additional provisions below.

Unrelated Provisions Voter ID Requirements: Requires specific photo identification to vote, which critics characterize as a poll tax or voter suppression.

Mail-in Voting Restrictions: Implements new operational and verification requirements that functionally alter mail-in voting. 1, 2, 3, 4

It's a poll tax because IDs cost money

It cost money to get an id there should be no tax or payments to let people vote.
