Capitol: Congress trading disclosures on your names

US Congress trading disclosures on your names, and the members you follow. Members report up to forty-five days after trading, and the lag column shows how stale each filing already is.

Capitol: the Our names table with traded date, ticker, type, amount range, member, chamber, asset and lag, then the tracked members panel.

What it shows

Our names. Every filing that touches a name on your book or watchlists: the trade date, ticker, purchase or sale (full or partial), the amount band the member reported, the member and chamber, the asset as written on the form, and the lag between the trade and its disclosure.

The firehose. Under it, the raw feed of recent disclosures across every name, the same columns.

Tracked members. One panel per member on your list, with their filings on record.

The header says what was read and when: on a keyless copy, House reports only, over the last forty-five days, with a count of reports read and of scanned reports that carried no text layer.

Where each number comes from

Number Source
House disclosures The House Clerk's public periodic transaction reports, PDFs read by the desk; the first build downloads up to a hundred and fifty recent reports once, then a few seconds a day
Senate disclosures The data provider key. The Senate's site blocks programs, so a keyless copy shows the House only
Lag The disclosure date against the trade date on the form
