WASHINGTON -- WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. Josh Hawley is brushing off President Donald Trump's quip that he's a “second-tier” senator after the Republican’s proposal to ban stock trading by members of Congress — and the president and vice president — won bipartisan approval to advance in a committee vote.

Republican Sen. Josh Hawley voted with Democrats to advance legislation to ban members of Congress from owning individual stocks.

Hawley was the lone Republican supporter of the legislation, which has drawn heavy criticism from many within the GOP.
