Questions Worth Asking
Receipts, redacted no more.
Everything we get asked — about the data, the law, the signals, and how we score them.
What is congressional insider trading?
When members of Congress buy or sell stocks using non-public legislative information — advance knowledge of bills, committee decisions, or regulatory actions. The STOCK Act of 2012 technically prohibits it, but enforcement is virtually nonexistent: the penalty for late disclosure is a $200 fine, and no member of Congress has ever been prosecuted. 348 of 538 Congress members (64.7%) actively trade stocks. We've identified 752 active Triple Signals — cases where politicians sit on committees controlling bills, trade stocks in affected companies, and receive campaign contributions from the same industries. Bills with these indicators pass at 5.4x the rate of average legislation.
How do I track what stocks Congress is buying?
GovGreed exposes every stock trade Congress makes by aggregating STOCK Act disclosures from all 538 members and scoring each trade using a 7-layer AI model. We pull from 8 federal sources: STOCK Act filings, SEC EDGAR, FEC contributions, Senate lobbying disclosures, Congress.gov bill records, committee markup schedules, federal contracts, and licensed market data. We detect herd signals when 3+ politicians independently buy the same stock, correlate trades with pending legislation, and profile each politician's behavior with ML-powered quality scores. 103,000 historical trades are searchable across 343 active congressional traders. Basic access is free.
Is it legal for Congress to trade stocks?
Yes — members of Congress can trade stocks today, as long as they comply with STOCK Act disclosure requirements. Multiple bills have been introduced in 2025-2026 to ban it outright, including the Stop Insider Trading Act and the Ban Conflicted Trading Act. Over 80% of Americans support a trading ban, and the issue remains a top bipartisan priority. We track the legislation that would change that.
What is a Triple Signal?
Our strongest corruption indicator. It fires when three conditions align on a single bill: (1) the politician sits on the committee controlling the bill, (2) they have traded stock in a company affected by the bill, and (3) they received campaign contributions from that industry. There are currently 752 active Triple Signals in the 119th Congress.
Can you copy congressional stock trades?
Congressional trades are disclosed under the STOCK Act, but the average 49-day disclosure gap means you're trading on delayed information if you simply copy positions after filing. We take a different approach: our ML models predict which politicians are positioning ahead of legislation. The platform maintains 819 active predictions across 76 politicians. We also detect herd signals — when 3+ politicians independently buy the same stock — which historically correlate with above-market returns. A+ tier signals show a 72.7% win rate with +10.7% average 30-day return based on backtesting.
Which politicians are the most active stock traders?
The most active is Ro Khanna (D-CA) with 24,822 trades across 1,378 unique tickers. Michael McCaul (R-TX) has made 16,429 trades with 3,405 filed late. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has an estimated portfolio value of $194M and a Greediness score of 98.1. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) made 2,090 trades despite being one of the loudest opponents of a trading ban. Our AI assigns quality tiers from S (best) to F, with A+ tier politicians achieving a 72.7% win rate.
Is there a congressional stock trading ban coming?
Multiple bills are under consideration in 2025-2026, including the Stop Insider Trading Act and the Ban Conflicted Trading Act. President Trump called for a ban during his State of the Union address. While bipartisan support exists, previous attempts have stalled. We track this legislation and its potential market impact in real time.
How does GovGreed detect insider trading patterns?
We use a 7-layer AI scoring model that cross-references each trade against politician quality (20%), herd behavior (20%), bill correlation (16%), technical indicators (12%), sector momentum (12%), campaign contributions (10%), and lobbying alignment (10%). When 3+ layers converge on the same trade, a convergence multiplier amplifies the score — up to 2x for 5+ signals firing simultaneously. The model is trained on 45,000 bills and 103,000 historical trades spanning 2012-2026.
