Week of 2026-09-14

One hundred sixteen congressional stock trades were disclosed this week, with two House Democrats alone accounting for 95 of them as selling dominated across Consumer Cyclical and Technology sectors.

The Big Picture

The vast majority of this week's activity came from the House, where Rep. April Delaney of Maryland and Rep. Gilbert Cisneros of California together filed 95 of the 116 total transactions. Delaney's disclosures included the week's largest single trade — a sale of a construction-materials stock worth as much as $500,000 — while Cisneros filed 55 trades spanning sectors from defense to healthcare to real estate. Across all members, Consumer Cyclical and Technology shares were the most frequently sold, while Technology and Industrials drew the most purchases.

This Week's Notable Trades

April Delaney (D-MD)

• Disclosed a sell of a $250,001–$500,000 position in Martin Marietta Materials Inc (MLM) on Aug. 25 — the week's single largest disclosed transaction; Martin Marietta is one of the country's biggest producers of crushed stone, sand, and gravel used in road and building construction.

• Disclosed a sell of a $100,001–$250,000 position in Entegris Inc (ENTG) on Aug. 25 — Entegris supplies specialty materials and filtration products essential to semiconductor chip manufacturing.
• Potential conflict: Rep. Delaney sits on the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee, which oversees federal science and technology policy; her disclosed sales of technology-sector companies this week — including Trimble, Paychex, Entegris, FleetCor Technologies Inc (FLT), ESCO Technologies Inc (ESE), and Teledyne Technologies Inc (TDY) — involve businesses whose activities fall within that committee's area of jurisdiction.

Gilbert Cisneros (D-CA)

• Disclosed a buy of a $15,001–$50,000 position in Moog Inc (MOG-A) on Aug. 7 — Moog designs precision motion-control systems used in military aircraft, guided missiles, and space launch vehicles.

• Potential conflict: Rep. Cisneros sits on the House Armed Services Committee, which oversees U.S. military spending and defense procurement; several of his disclosed trades this week — including purchases of Moog, Eaton, Quanta Services, and APi Group Corp (APG), and sales of Sterling Infrastructure Inc (STRL) and Ducommun Inc (DCO) — involve companies whose revenues depend significantly on defense and government infrastructure contracts.

Cory Booker (D-NJ)

• Disclosed a sell of a $100,001–$250,000 position in Amazon.com Inc (AMZN) on Aug. 11 — the second-largest individual transaction disclosed this week; Amazon is the country's dominant online retailer and operates one of the world's largest cloud computing platforms.

• Disclosed a sell of a $15,001–$50,000 position in McDonald's Corp (MCD) on Aug. 11 — all six of the senator's disclosed transactions originated from the same trading date, a pattern consistent with a single managed-account rebalancing.

John Boozman (R-AR)

• Disclosed a sell of a $1,001–$15,000 position in Constellation Energy Corp (CEG) on Aug. 13 — Constellation Energy operates the country's largest fleet of nuclear power plants.
• Disclosed a buy of a $1,001–$15,000 position in First Solar Inc (FSLR) on Aug. 13, the same date as the Constellation sale — First Solar is the largest U.S.-based manufacturer of utility-scale solar panels; Boozman sits on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.

• Disclosed a sell of a $1,001–$15,000 position in Moderna Inc (MRNA) on Aug. 19 — Moderna is a biotechnology company whose primary products are mRNA-based vaccines.
• Potential conflict: Rep. Salazar sits on the House Financial Services Committee, which oversees banking, securities, and insurance regulation; her disclosed purchase of Berkshire Hathaway — a financial conglomerate whose subsidiaries include major insurers and a large bank — represents a potential overlap between that company's sector and the committee's regulatory jurisdiction.

Late to File

No members disclosed late-filed trades this week under the 45-day STOCK Act window.

All-time: Across 22,667 total filings in the dataset, 12.5 percent — or 2,824 filings — have been submitted late; the members with the highest individual counts are Rep. Sheri Biggs (171 late filings), Rep. Julia Letlow (136), Rep. Valerie Hoyle (114), Sen. Thomas H. Tuberville (108), and Rep. Alan Armstrong (96). Late disclosure is a timing matter under the STOCK Act, not an assertion of improper trading.
