Mike Johnson
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is an outlier among recent House leaders in that his financial disclosures report no individual stocks, mutual funds, or other securities, and recent coverage describes a near-zero or negative net worth dominated by a home mortgage and personal loans, with income chiefly from his congressional salary and modest Liberty University teaching pay. Because the household does not trade individual securities, STOCK Act trading and committee-overlap concerns are effectively absent. His campaigns and joint fundraising committees draw heavily from the oil and gas industry (about $338,125 career, his single largest industry), and he has publicly championed LNG exports and opposed drilling restrictions; this is a documented correlation between donor concentration and policy alignment, not evidence of any quid pro quo. In August 2025 the Campaign Legal Center filed FEC and Office of Congressional Conduct complaints alleging Johnson improperly used roughly $12,500 in campaign funds to pay personal D.C. rent to a company owned by Rep. Darrell Issa; his campaign says the payments covered a separate campaign office. Watchdog complaints have also questioned disclosure omissions tied to his wife's nonprofit income, but no evidence was found of family lobbying or contracting tied to his office. He has missed about 3.5% of roll-call votes over his career, modestly above the chamber median.

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.
