Donald Trump has issued a full pardon to Stephen Buyer, a Republican who previously served as a congressman for Indiana, after Buyer completed nearly two years in prison for illegal stock trades made using inside information.
Buyer was sentenced in 2023 to 22 months for trades executed while working as a consultant and lobbyist. He was ordered to forfeit over $350,000 in illegal gains and pay a $10,000 fine, having been released in 2025.
