Why this matters

The people writing the rules can also bet on them

A member of the Armed Services Committee can vote on a defense budget and own the contractors that win it. A member of Energy can shape oil and nuclear policy while holding the producers. None of that is illegal — so long as the trade is disclosed within 45 days under the STOCK Act.

That disclosure is the whole point of this page. GovGreed collects every filing and organizes it the way no official portal does: by your own state, so you can see whether the people who represent you trade the markets they legislate.

Most members, in fact, don't trade individual stocks at all — which makes the ones who trade heavily stand out. Pick your state and judge for yourself.

Questions people ask

Congressional trading, explained

How do I find out if my representative trades stocks?
Pick your state at the top of this page. GovGreed lists every senator and representative from it, ranked by how actively they trade — trade counts, disclosed dollar volume, and the date of their most recent trade, all from STOCK Act filings. A free account reveals the specific companies behind each member.
Is it legal for members of Congress to trade stocks?
Yes — provided they disclose each trade within 45 days under the STOCK Act of 2012. Critics argue it creates conflicts of interest because members often trade in sectors their committees oversee. Several bills to ban the practice have been introduced; none has become law. Not financial advice.
Is my congressman trading defense stocks?
Some members — especially those on Armed Services, Appropriations, or Intelligence committees — have disclosed defense-contractor trades. Pick your state to see who trades, then open a free account to see the specific tickers and sectors, including defense names.
What is the STOCK Act?
The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act of 2012 requires members of Congress, their spouses, and senior staff to publicly disclose securities transactions over $1,000 within 45 days, and affirms they aren't exempt from insider-trading law. GovGreed is built on these public filings.
