Representative Anna Paulina Luna moved to force a congressional vote on banning stock trading by members of Congress.
This is a procedural motion to force a vote on congressional stock trading bans. While it addresses legitimate corruption concerns (corruption:4, capture:3), the actual constitutional damage is minimal (A=4.8) because: (1) it's a procedural motion, not actual policy change, (2) no mechanism of constitutional harm is present - this is an attempt to strengthen ethics rules, (3) scope is narrow to Congress members only. The mechanism_modifier is 0.7 because there's no actual damage mechanism - this is preventative governance theater. B-score is moderate (18.8) due to high media appeal of 'Congress policing itself' narrative and populist framing, but lacks the viral intensity for List B threshold. This is classic procedural theater - generates headlines about reform without constitutional stakes. Classification: Noise due to A<25, no damage mechanism, and strong indicators this is symbolic political positioning rather than substantive constitutional event.
Monitor only if motion actually succeeds and leads to substantive legislative action with enforcement mechanisms. Current form is procedural posturing on ethics reform.
