I so enjoy @aljazeera.com or @france24.com or DW reports on Canada. It gives us such an insight on how we are appearing to those elsewhere.

The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading.
It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.
