gov.congress-filings
Track US House members' financial-disclosure filings — including Periodic Transaction Reports (PTRs), the STOCK Act filings where members must disclose their stock trades within 45 days. Defaults to PTRs; pass type=annual|candidate|amendment|all to see other disclosure kinds. Filter by member name (q), 2-letter state, filing year, or filing-date range (dateFrom/dateTo). Each result gives the member, state + district, filing type (with a readable label), the filing/disclosure date, and a direct link to the source document (docUrl). The envelope total is the full count matching your filter — so q=Pelosi or year=2026 answers 'how many PTRs did they file'. Covers 2008→present (~8,200 PTRs), refreshed daily so new filings appear within ~a day. Note: by law trades are disclosed up to 45 days after they happen — this is current-to-the-filing, not real-time. Data: US House Clerk (public domain).
