Dan Crenshaw (R-TX-02) drew scrutiny for purchasing roughly half a dozen individual stocks in March 2020 — including Amazon, Boeing, Southwest, SPX and Kinder Morgan — during the period Congress debated and passed the CARES Act, and he initially failed to disclose these trades as required by the STOCK Act, later amending his filings and acknowledging a likely fine. Outside that 2020 episode, his disclosed trading is limited and dominated by the broad-market SPY ETF, with reporting indicating he holds few individual stocks. His net worth is reported to have grown over his tenure, but published estimates vary widely (from roughly $1.4M to $4.4M) and a substantial portion is attributed to a military pension, book royalties and real estate, making office-linked enrichment difficult to isolate from cited records. On campaign finance, the FEC fined his committee $42,000 in 2022 for failing to timely return more than $223,000 in excessive/prohibited contributions, and a separate FEC letter flagged about $9,000 in salon expenditures as a potential personal-use concern. He missed 6.2% of roll-call votes (233 of 3,777) from 2019 to mid-2026, roughly three times the chamber median, and his largest recent donor industry was Securities & Investment — associations that are correlation, not proof of any quid pro quo.

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

Net-worth enrichment in officeno data
15% weight
—
Published net-worth estimates rise over his tenure but conflict sharply across sources (roughly $1.4M to $4.4M for 2024), and much is attributed to a military pension, successful book royalties and real estate. No reliable disclosure-based figure isolates growth beyond salary and market returns, so no enrichment score is assigned (absence is not penalized).
Money → action alignmentcorrelation, not proof of any quid-pro-quo
20% weight
30
Correlation, not proof. Securities & Investment was the top industry to the Dan Crenshaw Victory Committee in 2024 (~$502,139), with AQR Capital Management the single largest donor (~$100,000); historically Gun Rights and Real Estate ranked among his top industries. He sits on Energy & Commerce and the Intelligence Committee. No evidence of any quid pro quo is asserted.
Campaign-fund personal use
15% weight
25
An FEC letter flagged roughly $9,000 in salon expenditures as a potential violation of federal rules barring personal use of campaign cash; this remains a flag rather than an adjudicated finding. Separately, the FEC fined his committee $42,000 in 2022 for failing to timely return >$223,000 in excessive/prohibited contributions — a compliance/refund failure, not personal-use spending.
Revolving door & familyno data
15% weight
—
No sourced evidence was found of family members lobbying or contracting tied to his office, or of a notable staff-to-lobbyist pipeline. Absence of data is not penalized.
Skips the job to fundraise
10% weight
30
Crenshaw missed 6.2% of roll-call votes (233 of 3,777) from January 2019 to June 2026 — roughly three times the ~2.1% median for serving representatives. He is an active fundraiser (top industry Securities & Investment) and public speaker, but the cited records do not directly tie specific missed votes to fundraising or paid-speech events.
