Patty Murray
Murray (D-WA, since 1993) has a moderate profile. Stock trades (~161, ~$1.3M) look advisor-managed, not self-directed; net worth ~$1.5-3.9M is mid-pack. Clearest findings are structural: top lobbyist/Boeing donor recipient and 17+ ex-aides turned lobbyists tied to earmarks. Missed votes 2.6% (typical); no campaign personal-use found. Money findings are correlation, not proof.

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.
