Congressional Trades

Every stock, bond, fund, and asset transaction disclosed by members of the U.S. House and Senate under the STOCK Act — sourced from Senate eFD and House Clerk Periodic Transaction Reports (PTRs) and normalized into one schema with member identity, ticker, amount range, ownership, and the disclosure lag.

What it returns

One record per disclosed transaction. Each carries the member, the asset, the trade direction and size (as the STOCK Act's disclosed dollar range), who owns the asset, and how late it was reported. Key fields:

Who traded — member_name, bioguide_id, chamber, state, state_district, party, office
What — ticker, asset_name, asset_type
The trade — transaction_type (buy / sell / exchange), transaction_nature (open-market vs gift / transfer), transaction_date, disclosure_date, reporting_lag_days
Size — amount_range, amount_min, amount_max
Ownership & source — owner (self / spouse / dependent), comment, data_source, report_url, ptr_id

Filters

ticker	Stock symbol, e.g. `AAPL`. Case-insensitive. Omit to query across all tickers.
member_name	Full or partial member name; case-insensitive substring (e.g. `Pelosi`).
bioguide_id	The member's permanent congressional ID, e.g. `P000197`. Most precise.
chamber	`house` or `senate`.
transaction_type	`buy`, `sell`, or `exchange`.
owner	`self`, `spouse`, or `dependent`.
min_amount	Only trades with `amount_min` ≥ this value (USD) — focus on larger trades.
since / until	ISO dates (`YYYY-MM-DD`) bounding the window.
include_non_open_market	Include non-open-market events (gifts, transfers, conversions) alongside ordinary trades. Off by default.
sort_by / sort_order	Ordering + the field `since`/`until` filter on. Default `disclosure_date`, `desc`.
limit	Max records — default 50, max 500.
