#40 of 193 scored

Rep. Jonathan Jackson (D-IL-1) has represented Chicago's South Side since 2023 and sits on the Agriculture and Foreign Affairs committees. His household trades individual stocks actively, mainly through a joint trust and his wife's accounts: 154 transactions since December 2023, worth an estimated $1.9M to $6.1M. He filed late in 2023 and again in 2025, when 31 of his wife's trades were disclosed months past deadline. His disclosed assets are modest, roughly $1.4M to $3.4M, mostly Chicago rental real estate. His 7.7% missed-vote rate in the 119th Congress is well above the House median. No ethics findings, personal-use complaints or family lobbying were found.

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 →

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
50
Greederboard's parse of 28 House PTRs (Dec 2023 to Aug 2026) shows 154 individual-stock transactions worth an estimated $1.9M to $6.1M, mostly in a joint trust (89) or his wife's accounts (52). Thirty-one of his wife's 2025 trades were filed up to 130 days past the 45-day deadline, and a 2023 joint-trust filing was also late. He sits on the Agriculture subcommittee covering commodity markets and digital assets, and the joint account traded Robinhood (HOOD), whose PAC gave to his campaign. Moderate volume with some committee overlap and repeated late filings.
Net-worth enrichment in office
15% weight
10
His 2025 annual report lists assets of roughly $1.4M to $3.4M (summed from disclosed ranges), up from roughly $1.1M to $2.8M in the 2024 report. The main holdings are three Chicago rental properties and brokerage accounts, offset by a Morgan Stanley credit line of $250K to $500K. Modest growth, consistent with market gains and rental income.
Money → action alignmentcorrelation, not proof of any quid-pro-quo
20% weight
28
This shows correlation, not proof. Itemized PAC money in 2024 totaled about $308K from a broad mix of unions, business groups and finance. A visible slice came from agriculture and commodity-market interests his Agriculture committee oversees: ADM, Bunge, Cargill, Corteva, sugar-grower PACs, CME Group, Cboe and Robinhood. No documented donor-to-action link.
Campaign-fund personal useno data
15% weight
—
No FEC or ethics complaint alleging personal use of campaign or leadership-PAC funds by Jonathan Jackson was found. His brother's 2013 campaign-fund conviction concerns a different person and is not counted here.
Revolving door & familyno data
15% weight
—
No family lobbying, federal contracts, or staff-to-lobby pipeline tied to his office was found.
Skips the job to fundraise
10% weight
28
Voteview data for the 119th Congress shows 52 missed votes out of 674 (7.7%), well above the ~2% House median. His father, Rev. Jesse Jackson, was hospitalized in November 2025 and died Feb 17, 2026; no source ties his absences to that, and no paid-speech or fundraising pattern was found.
