About CongressTrades
CongressTrades is a data tool for investors and journalists tracking congressional stock disclosures. The MVP focuses on speed, searchability, and transparent presentation of what lawmakers reported trading.
Mission
Make congressional trading disclosures easier to inspect, compare, and investigate. The product is built for data density and rapid triage rather than marketing polish.
Methodology
Trades are shown as reported amount ranges from disclosures. Exact transaction values are not disclosed; timing and trade classifications reflect the source filing records.
