Adam Schiff, a Democrat, served in the U.S. House from 2001 to 2024 and was sworn in as a U.S. Senator for California in December 2024. Disclosure trackers show his household holds a mix of mutual funds (e.g., Fidelity Puritan, Invesco QQQ, Franklin funds) and at least one large individual stock position (Apple, up to $250,000), with a small number of disclosed trades totaling roughly $65,000-$73,000, including a December 2021 sale of AbbVie and a September 2025 partial sale of Apple; Schiff is a co-sponsor of legislation to ban members of Congress and their families from trading individual stocks. Quiver Quantitative estimates his net worth at about $2.1 million as of 2025, and much of his disclosed wealth (a Burbank rental property, retirement accounts) predates his Senate tenure. He raised roughly $17.5 million across his career and benefited from a $5 million AIPAC-affiliated Super PAC during the 2024 race; this is a correlation in funding sources, not evidence of any quid pro quo. No FEC enforcement actions for personal use of campaign funds and no documented family lobbying ties were located in public sources. His lifetime missed-vote rate is about 3.2%, but he missed roughly 47.8% of votes during 2024 while serving in the House and campaigning heavily for the Senate.

None
H.R. 7008 bans new stock purchases by members, spouses and dependents; it doesn't force sales of existing holdings. The Senate vote was on the version paired with the SAVE Act, which is why no Democrat voted yes. Full breakdown →
Amounts are the ranges members must report, not exact values. The STOCK Act requires a report within 45 days of a trade; "late" counts days past that deadline, measured to the filing date.
How the score breaks down
Stock self-tradinghousehold / spouse
25% weight
22
Household holds a mix of mutual funds plus at least one large individual stock (Apple, up to $250,000) and made a small number of disclosed trades (~$65,000-$73,000 total), including a Dec 2021 AbbVie sale and a Sep 2025 partial Apple sale. Low trade volume and frequency; no evidence of committee-sector timing or market-beating pattern. Schiff co-sponsors a ban on member/family stock trading.
Estimated net worth ~$2.1 million (2025). Schiff entered the Senate only in December 2024, so there is minimal Senate tenure over which to measure enrichment; disclosed assets such as a Burbank rental property and retirement accounts predate his Senate office and are not scored. No evidence of growth beyond salary and market returns during Senate tenure.

Correlation, not proof. Schiff is a prolific fundraiser (~$17.5 million career; ~$10.3 million in the 2023-24 cycle), and an AIPAC-affiliated Super PAC (United Democracy Project) put $5 million into a pro-Schiff Super PAC during the 2024 Senate race. His funding skews to large individual donors (55.5%) and small donors (39.8%), with PACs only ~2.1%. No quid-pro-quo asserted; industry concentration data from OpenSecrets could not be directly retrieved.
No FEC enforcement actions, complaints, or credible reporting were located alleging personal use of campaign or leadership-PAC funds by Schiff. Absence of evidence is not treated as wrongdoing.
No documented evidence was found of family members lobbying or holding contracts tied to Schiff's office, nor of a notable staff-to-lobbyist pipeline. His spouse, Eve Schiff, is not publicly reported as a lobbyist. Absence of evidence is not penalized.
Schiff's lifetime missed-vote rate is about 3.2% (28 of 863), near the Senate median. However, during 2024 he missed roughly 47.8% of votes while serving in the House and running an intensive, well-funded Senate campaign that raised millions per quarter. The elevated absences coincided with heavy fundraising, though running for higher office is a common cause.
