Senate Democrats block stock trading ban and data center bill

Original: Senate Democrats sink 'toothless' stock trading ban, data center bill in last act before election recess

Senate Democrats blocked a proposed ban on stock trading by members of Congress, dismissing it as 'toothless', and also stopped a data center bill in their final votes before leaving for the election recess. The moves mean both measures will not advance until after the election, leaving ethics and tech legislation in limbo.

Why now: The votes came in the last Senate session before the election recess, making the blocked legislation a fresh point of political controversy.
