Politician stock tracker

Which tracker should you actually use?

A fair question, and most of the pages competing for it will not answer it. Here is the honest version.

The underlying data is the same everywhere. Every tracker reads the same public filings. Nobody has a private feed of congressional trades, and anyone implying otherwise is selling you the packaging. What differs is coverage, honesty about delay, and what gets sold on top.

What we do not have: the Senate. Its filing system blocks automated access, so this is a House tracker. We also publish no estimated returns and no portfolios, because the filings do not contain them.

What we do differently: we print the delay. Every row shows how many days passed between the trade and the disclosure, and when a filing breaks the STOCK Act’s 45-day limit we say so. 14.9% of the transactions here did. The largest gap in our records is a filing by Jefferson Shreve, dated 08 MAY 2015 on a report filed 22 JUN 2025 — 3,698 days. A gap that size is usually a date written oddly on the document rather than a disclosure held back that long, and we cannot tell the two apart from the filing alone. The document is here — judge it yourself.

Questions people ask

What is the app that tracks politicians’ investments?

There are several, and they are not interchangeable. Quiver Quantitative, Capitol Trades, Unusual Whales, Stock Circle and Insider Finance all publish congressional trades, mostly free, and most also sell something else on top — options flow, screeners, alerts. Quiet Money is the one that prints how late each filing was and refuses to publish a figure the filing does not contain. We hold 10,753 transactions from 128 House members, parsed from 781 filings.

How do I track senator stocks?

Not here, and we would rather say so than pretend. The Senate publishes its filings through eFD, which blocks automated access, so this tracker covers the US House only. The Senate’s disclosures are still public — you can search them by hand on the Senate eFD site. Anyone showing you a combined House-and-Senate feed is either doing manual entry or reading a third party; ask which.

Is there an ETF that tracks politicians?

Yes — NANC is a US-listed fund built from the same congressional trade disclosures, and it trades like a stock. This site does not follow or rate ETFs. It shows the underlying filings, row by row, with the date each one became public.

How fast does a politician have to report a trade?

The STOCK Act gives a member 45 days from the transaction. In the filings we hold, the median gap is 28 days — and 1,601 transactions, 14.9% of the total, were filed after the 45 days had passed. The largest gap in our records is 3,698 days, but a gap that size is more likely a date written wrongly on the filing than a trade held back that long.

Is this data real, and where does it come from?

It is read directly from the House Clerk’s own periodic transaction report PDFs, which are public. Every row on this page links to the document it came from. When a PDF cannot be read cleanly we reject it rather than guess at the numbers, and scanned paper filings are recorded but not machine-read.

Does this tell me what to buy?

No. There are no predictions, recommendations or performance figures anywhere in Quiet Money; the one summary we print — how the disclosed money leans — is built only from filed counts and shows those counts beside it. Congress discloses an amount as a range, so we print the range and never take a midpoint. A periodic transaction report also lists trades, not holdings — so nobody, including us, can build a politician’s real portfolio from these filings alone.
