Low self-dealing
4/6 components have data
#187 of 193 scored

Al Green has represented Texas's 9th District since 2005 and serves on the House Financial Services Committee, where he is Ranking Member of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee. Public trackers (MarketBeat, Quiver) show no disclosed individual-stock trading under the STOCK Act; his reported assets are described as mutual funds, bonds, and conservative holdings, and his substantial net worth (estimated ~$5-10M) largely predates Congress, reflecting his prior career as an attorney and justice of the peace. His sole financial-sector donor concentration sits alongside his committee seat (correlation, not proof of self-dealing), and his House attendance is roughly average (about 2% missed votes lifetime). The only ethics matters of record are a 2021 House Ethics report tied to a protest arrest (not financial) and a 2007-2017 personal dispute with a former staffer resolved without any monetary payment; no campaign-fund personal-use or revolving-door findings surfaced.

The stock-trading ban

H.R. 7008 passage, Jul 22, 2026
No
Cosponsored a ban bill
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 →

Disclosed stock trades

No periodic transaction reports on file since 2024. That's the norm: most members don't trade individual stocks, or hold them in blind trusts and diversified funds.

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.

Net-worth enrichment in office
15% weight
0
Net worth estimated ~$5.4M (2018) rising toward ~$10M (2025 third-party estimates), but Green was a practicing attorney and justice of the peace before his 2005 election, so pre-office wealth is excluded. No evidence of growth beyond salary/market attributable to office; disclosure ranges make precise tenure-growth calculation unreliable. Scored 0 (absence not penalized).
OpenSecrets estimated Green's 2018 net worth at ~$5.37M; assets reported as stocks, mutual funds, and bonds.Reference databaseopensecrets.org ↗

CORRELATION, NOT PROOF. Green sits on House Financial Services (Ranking Member, Oversight & Investigations) and his campaign donor base is concentrated in finance/insurance and securities/investment industries per OpenSecrets, a common pattern for Financial Services members. No specific quid-pro-quo or vote-buying evidence found; score reflects sector-committee overlap only.
