Wait...what? Congress cant even agree to at least bar convicted securities law violators from serving on a committee that influences securities regulation?!? Republicans on the House Rules Committee had blocked more aggressive oversight amendments from [Rep. Maxine] Waters [D-CA] and Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.), preventing floor votes on them. Lynchs proposal would have required greater scrutiny of high-frequency trading. Waters amendment would have banned anyone who had been convicted of violating securities laws, or who is the subject of a formal ongoing securities law investigation, from serving on the [Commodity Futures Trading Commission]s advisory committee.
