I think there is some legislation out there that is being sponsored by Bernie Sanders in the Senate and Maurice Hinchey and some other Members here in the House that actually would more or less force you all to embrace position limits with regard to futures markets, et cetera.
Emerson discusses legislation on position limits in futures markets.

This legislation is particularly noteworthy because it was suggested to me least year by one of my own constituents--adjust Medicare insurance payments for Notch Babies.
My legislation, the Notch Baby Health Care Relief Act, will offset the reduction in Social Security benefits by providing a tax credit for Medicare Part B premiums.
Mr. Speaker, today I am again introducing legislation to assist the over 6 million senior citizens who have been negatively impacted by the Social Security Amendments of 1977.
I urge my colleagues to review the Notch Baby Health Care Relief Act, to discuss this legislation with the seniors in their districts, and to join me in cosponsoring this important legislation.
