The weekly data drop

Congress trading, week of October 26, 2026

Oct 26 to Nov 1, 2026 · 14 reports · 56 trades

12 members of Congress filed 14 periodic transaction reports between October 26 and November 1, 2026, disclosing 56 trades with a listed ticker (11 purchases and 45 sales) across 44 tickers. Members report brackets rather than amounts, so the week's disclosed value falls somewhere in $1.5M–$4.0M, 56 trades from the House. Every trade in the week's reports was disclosed inside the 45-day window the STOCK Act allows, at a median of 25 days after the trade.

This page covers one Monday-to-Sunday filing week and is rewritten every Monday, once the week has closed, from the same parsed filings the rest of the site runs on. The week it currently covers keeps its own permanent address at /data/week/2026-10-26, and every earlier week is in the archive. Every figure below is a count, a date, a disclosed amount range, or a lag against the STOCK Act deadline, and every one of them can be checked against the underlying reports.

The twelve tickers the most members touched. The rest are in the week's individual reports.

Traded by more than one member

$ABT (Pete Sessions, Thomas H. Kean), $TXN (Kevin Hern, Thomas H. Kean), $V (David J. Taylor, Pete Sessions), and $XOM (Diana Harshbarger, Pete Sessions) were disclosed by more than one member in the same filing week. The overlap is a fact about the filings, not a claim about why the trades happened; longer-running convergences are tracked in the cluster study.

Cite the permanent week address rather than this one: this page moves on next Monday, that one does not.

To work with the numbers rather than quote them, every week on record is downloadable as CSV or JSON: one row per filing week, with the reports filed, members filing, trades disclosed and trades that missed the 45-day deadline. Free to reuse with attribution.

The source records are the periodic transaction reports members file with the House Clerk and the Senate Office of Public Records; Coldpine parses them and counts what they contain. How the parsing works, and what it misses, is in the methodology; who publishes this and how to reach us for a correction is on the masthead. Machine-readable access to the same data is documented for developers and AI assistants.
