Where does this data come from?

From the Periodic Transaction Reports that members of the House of Representatives file with the Clerk of the House under the STOCK Act. Every trade links to the original filing.

Why are the amounts ranges?

The law only requires members to report the value of a trade within a range, such as $1,001 - $15,000. The exact amount is not disclosed.

How quickly are trades disclosed?

Members must report a trade within 30 days of being notified of it, and no later than 45 days after the trade. So trades appear here weeks after they happen.

How to read this list

Filed vs. traded: "Traded" is when the transaction happened; "Filed" is when the member disclosed it. Members have up to 45 days to report, so trades show up weeks after they happen.
Amount: The law only requires a value range (for example $1,001 – $15,000), not the exact amount.
Owner: Who holds the asset: the member (Self), their spouse (SP), a joint account (JT) or a dependent child (DC).
Type: Purchase, Sale, Partial sale, or Exchange (one holding swapped for another).

Where the data comes from

Under the STOCK Act, members of the House of Representatives file Periodic Transaction Reports with the Office of the Clerk. This page downloads those public reports every hour and reads the trades out of each electronically filed PDF. Every row links to the original filing, which is the official record — if anything here differs from it, the filing is correct.

Member photos are the official congressional portraits (public domain). Party, district and website come from the open congress-legislators dataset.
