Malinowski will pay for his STOCK Act violations one way or another

Tom Malinowski has once again found himself as the poster boy for STOCK Act violations in Congress – this time with the added bonus that he’s not paying the consequences for his lawbreaking activity.

Malinowski has violated the STOCK Act 145 times totaling at least $845,000 in shady stock transactions, according to Business Insider, and now they’re reporting that he’s only paid a $200 fine for his transgressions.

But that $200 only covers one STOCK Act violation, per guidance from the House Ethics Committee – and Malinowski has broken the law multiple times.

NRCC Comment: “Tom Malinowski is not above the law and he will pay the price for his repeated violations of federal law – if not monetarily then with his job next November.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Samantha Bullock
