After news that Perdue and Loeffler sold stock after all-Senate briefing on coronavirus outbreak, Chair Williams calls for Ethics Committee to investigate
ATLANTA — Following recent news that Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue spent the last few weeks selling stocks while investing in telework and pharmaceutical stocks after a private all-Senate briefing on the coronavirus outbreak, Democratic Party of Georgia (DPG) Chair Nikema Williams released the following statement:
“Both Senators Perdue and Loeffler betrayed the public trust when they made massive stock sell-offs after receiving a private briefing, and they must explain themselves to Georgia families who are suffering during this pandemic. Each should submit to a full investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee so we can fully understand if they used their Senate positions to profit off this public health crisis.”
