James Lankford
James Lankford (R-OK), a U.S. senator since 2015, has a comparatively modest financial profile: his disclosed holdings are dominated by a MidFirst Bank deposit and broad index ETFs (IVV, IJH), with no evidence of individual-stock trading subject to STOCK Act periodic transaction reporting. Quiver Quantitative estimates his net worth at roughly $795K (2025), ranking among the lower half of Congress, with no documented growth beyond ordinary salary and market gains. His top career donor industry is oil and gas (~$545K) with significant pro-Israel PAC support, a typical pattern for an Oklahoma Republican that constitutes correlation, not proof, of influence. No FEC personal-use complaints, family-lobbying ties, or notable absenteeism were found in available public records; on the metrics tested, his record appears clean and scores low.

The stock-trading ban
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.
