US Congress Trading Monitor

See what members of the US House are trading, parsed, scored and ranked. Provide one or more House member last names and get their recent stock trades from the official House Clerk disclosures: each transaction with ticker, buy or sell, estimated size and date, plus buys-vs-sells and an estimated total per member. A curated trading signal, not a raw PDF dump.

How it works

The tool reads the official US House Clerk financial-disclosure feed (free, public, no key), filters to each member's recent Periodic Transaction Reports, and parses the trades from the e-filed PDFs. Clean and official.

Example

One real record from the live feed, refreshed daily. This is the exact JSON the API and the MCP tools return for every trade:

{
  "member": "Gilbert Cisneros",
  "ticker": "MSFT",
  "tx_type": "Sale",
  "tx_date": "06/02/2026",
  "amount_low": 500001,
  "amount_high": 1000000,
  "impact": 95,
  "filing_date": "2026-07-02",
  "pdf_url": "https://disclosures-clerk.house.gov/public_disc/ptr-pdfs/2026/20034906.pdf"
}

Every field is parsed straight from the official House Clerk filing linked in pdf_url. The impact score (0–100) ranks how market-moving a trade is, so an agent or a spreadsheet can sort it or set a threshold on it. All 176 scored trades in the current window share this shape.

Scope and limitation

US House only. The Senate eFD portal blocks automated access and prohibits commercial use, so it is intentionally excluded. Only e-filed (digital) reports are machine-readable; older scanned paper filings are skipped (no OCR).

FAQ

Where does the data come from?

The official US House Clerk financial-disclosure feed, published under the STOCK Act.

Why only the House?

The Senate portal is anti-bot protected and its terms prohibit commercial use.

Is this investment advice?

No. It is data for research and monitoring.

Use with AI agents and automation

This runs as an Apify Actor, so it drops into your stack with no scraping or glue code: - AI agents and LLMs: call it as a live tool from LangChain, LlamaIndex or Flowise, or over MCP. - No-code automation: wire it to Zapier or Make (new disclosed trade -> Slack, Google Sheets or alert). - Webhooks and pipelines: fire a webhook on each run, or chain it into another DataSignals Lab product. - API and schedule: JSON output, on demand or on a daily schedule.
