Jamie Raskin's household trades individual stocks only sparingly, but the disclosures that exist have repeatedly been filed late: reporting outlets documented three STOCK Act late-filing violations across 2022 and 2025, including an AT&T sale (1,001-15,000 dollars) and a 50,001-100,000 dollar 2024 sale, plus a failure to timely report his wife Sarah Bloom Raskin's roughly 1.5 million dollar Reserve Trust stock liquidation. Raskin attributed one late filing to the death of his son during the reporting period and paid at least one small Treasury reimbursement. The Reserve Trust matter generated significant controversy during his wife's 2022 Federal Reserve nomination, but it stemmed from her prior career as a regulator-turned-corporate-director, not from Raskin's congressional office; the disclosure failures attributable to him are procedural. His campaign is funded overwhelmingly by individuals (close to 90 percent), with roughly 10 percent from PACs and no prominent industry concentration tied to specific votes, and he is among the most prolific small-dollar fundraisers in the House (nearly 5.9 million dollars cash on hand in mid-2025). His voting attendance is strong (about 1.1 percent missed votes, better than the chamber median), and no public reporting alleges campaign-fund personal use. Reported net worth spans a wide disclosure range (roughly negative 2.2 million to 5.8 million dollars) with no documented evidence of office-driven enrichment.

How the score breaks down

Stock self-tradinghousehold / spouse
25% weight
38
Household trades individual stocks only occasionally (a handful of disclosed transactions including AT&T and a 50k-100k 2024 sale), but reporters documented three STOCK Act late-filing violations in 2022 and 2025, plus failure to timely disclose a spouse stock liquidation worth ~$1.5M. Score reflects repeated disclosure non-compliance rather than heavy/strategic trading; no evidence of market-beating timing in committee-overseen sectors.
Net-worth enrichment in officeno data
15% weight
—
Disclosure ranges are wide (roughly -$2.2M to $5.8M for 2024) and third-party estimates vary; no sourced analysis attributes net-worth growth to his office beyond salary and market returns. The largest household windfall (the ~$1.5M Reserve Trust sale) predated and derived from his spouse's separate private-sector role, not Raskin's congressional tenure.
Money → action alignmentcorrelation, not proof of any quid-pro-quo
20% weight
18
Correlation, not proof. Raskin's funding is heavily small-dollar/individual (close to 90% from individuals, ~10% PACs) with top contributors led by American University (his former employer) and lawyers/education rather than a concentrated regulated industry aligned to specific votes. Low concentration limits any money-vote alignment inference.
Campaign-fund personal useno data
15% weight
—
No public reporting or FEC-based account surfaced alleging that Raskin's campaign committee or leadership PAC (Democracy Summer Leadership PAC) spent funds on personal-benefit categories. Absence of evidence is not penalized.
Revolving door & family
15% weight
22
His wife Sarah Bloom Raskin was characterized as a 'revolving-door' figure for joining Reserve Trust's board after federal service and contacting the Fed regarding its master account; however, this tied to her own regulator-to-private-sector path, not Raskin's congressional office or a staff-to-lobbyist pipeline. Raskin's connection is limited to disclosure failures about her holdings; no documented family lobbying of his office.
Skips the job to fundraise
10% weight
5
Raskin is one of the most prolific House fundraisers (over $2.5M in H1 2025; ~$5.9M cash on hand) yet maintains a strong voting attendance record (~1.1% missed votes, better than the chamber median), so heavy fundraising has not coincided with neglected legislative duties.
