To makes things even more interesting, Burr was one of only 3 senators to vote AGAINST the act that would prohibit the actions he is being accused of according to David Sirota.
FUN FACT: @SenatorBurr was one of only 3 senators in the entire Senate to vote against the STOCK Act, which was designed to outlaw insider trading by Members of Congress.
