Most members of Congress file a handful of trades per year. A small group files hundreds — or thousands. Here's a look at the most active congressional traders in 2026, based on STOCK Act disclosure data.
1. Ro Khanna (D-CA) — The Volume King
Representative Ro Khanna is by far the most active trader in Congress. In 2025 alone he filed over 4,100 individual transactions with a total disclosed volume exceeding $53 million. His strategy is built on diversification and high turnover across tech, consumer staples, and financials.
Signature moves: Pinterest (PINS) accumulation, Micron (MU) reduction, Salesforce (CRM) additions.

2. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) — The High-Conviction Player
Where Khanna wins on volume, Pelosi wins on conviction. Her household portfolio takes large concentrated positions in Big Tech, often through deep in-the-money call options. Estimated portfolio value: $270M–$280M.

Why Do Some Congress Members Trade So Much?
Some members actively manage their own portfolios. Others have spouses who are professional investors. And some may be taking advantage of information asymmetry — which is exactly why trackers like this one exist.
