been poking around with congressional stock trade data and noticed some timing that's hard to ignore
filtered for trades made within 30 days before a related vote and a few jumped out:
* April McClain Delaney (D-MD) bought Clean Harbors (CLH) the day before voting on the ROTOR Act
* Kelly Morrison (D-MN) bought Axiom Quant the day before a law enforcement bill vote
* Byron Donalds (R-FL) bought Trade Desk (TTD) the day before voting on national emergency legislation
not claiming anything illegal happened, the STOCK Act technically allows this. just find it weird that the timing keeps being 1 day out
been building something that tracks this more systematically... trades, votes, committee memberships, donor patterns. wondering if there's actually demand for this kind of tool or if it's just me that finds it interesting
