This free congress stock tracker rebuilds the stock and options trades of U.S. House and Senate members from official STOCK Act disclosures — the most active traders, top bought and sold tickers, a party breakdown, and a live feed of the latest filings. It works as a full politician stock tracker, not just one member. Last updated July 14, 2026. All amounts are filed as ranges, so values are estimates.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Congressional Trade Desk?
It is a free, live tracker that rebuilds the stock and options trades disclosed by members of the U.S. Congress — both the House and the Senate — from their official STOCK Act filings. It shows the most active traders, what Congress is buying and selling, a party breakdown, and a running feed of the latest disclosures.
Which members of Congress trade stocks the most?
The Most Active Traders leaderboard above ranks current members by disclosed dollar volume and by number of trades, color-coded by party. Heavily watched names include Nancy Pelosi, Cleo Fields, Lisa McClain, Gilbert Cisneros, Kevin Hern and Josh Gottheimer — but the live ranking updates as new filings post.
What stocks is Congress buying right now?
The Top Bought and Top Sold sections show the tickers with the most disclosed buying and selling across Congress over the last year. Mega-cap technology — NVIDIA, Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet, Amazon, Broadcom — dominates the buy side, the same way it does in many congressional portfolios.
Is it legal for members of Congress to trade stocks?
Yes. Members of Congress (and their spouses) can legally buy and sell stocks, but the 2012 STOCK Act requires them to publicly disclose each trade within 30 to 45 days. This tracker is built entirely from those mandatory public disclosures.
Does this track the Senate too, or just the House?
Both. The House data is comprehensive back to 2014. Senate coverage is currently lighter because the Senate publishes through a separate disclosure system, and we are expanding it. Every figure is labeled by chamber.
How do I track congressional stock trades myself?
This page is the simplest way — it rebuilds the filings into leaderboards, ticker rankings and a live feed. You can also read the raw reports at the House Clerk and Senate eFD sites, but those are individual PDFs with no running totals.
How current is the data, and why is there a lag?
Members have up to ~45 days after a trade to file. We refresh from the official sources regularly, so a filing appears here soon after it posts — but the trade itself can be several weeks old by law. The latest filing date is shown at the top.
Are the dollar amounts exact?
No. Disclosures report only broad ranges (for example, $1,001 to $15,000), never an exact figure. Every dollar value here is an estimate built from range midpoints, so treat them as directional, not precise.
Is this investment advice?
No. The Congressional Trade Desk is educational and informational only. It is published by Pure Power Picks, is not affiliated with any member of Congress or the U.S. government, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
