Martin Heinrich
Senator Martin Heinrich (D-NM) presents a notably clean self-dealing profile. He is consistently ranked among the least wealthy U.S. senators, with reported net worth ranging from negative figures to the low hundreds of thousands, and his disclosed holdings are dominated by retirement plans, college-savings accounts, and diversified mutual funds rather than individual equities; he is also a cosponsor of legislation to ban congressional stock trading. His voting attendance is strong (about 2.5% missed votes lifetime, near the Senate median), and no credible reports indicate campaign-fund personal use or family lobbying/contracts tied to his office. The one notable item is a 2024 partisan/watchdog ethics complaint alleging he tied legislative solicitations to fundraising emails, which remains an unadjudicated allegation. Money-in-politics signals are routine industry/PAC contributions common to incumbents and are correlation, not proof of self-dealing.

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.
