Procedure corner: everyone asking why the stock-trading ban can't just 'get a vote' — a discharge petition needs 218 signatures, and members must sign PUBLICLY. Currently at 187 by my count. The 31 missing signatures are the entire ballgame, and every one of them has a reason they'll share off the record and never on it.
