You're going to further shrink your pool of people willing to run, but I'm willing to listen to an argument where someone who is elected to Congress has to immediately divest of all their individual stocks.

However, family members? Immediate family? Cousins?

What if a child or nephew of someone elected to Congress doesn't agree politically with their parent or aunt/uncle who was elected? Didn't even vote for them. Should they have to divest?
