Bank CDs seem pretty safe, especially when $250k and under per institution. Why dont brokers allow them to be used as margin? There has to be a reason but I cant think of one.

I am currently in the BIL etf with all my uninvested cash getting GREAT interest and able to intraday trade since BIL is marginable. How do Treasury Bills brought thru a broker work with margin? The same as the BIL etf? More? Less? (This will be my first time buying TBills thru a broker and...
