industries, and they also buy and sell stock. This page shows where those two
facts meet: every disclosed trade in a sector one of the trader's own
committees oversees.

How this is built. Committee
assignments come from the public
unitedstates/congress-legislators
rosters; trades come from STOCK Act disclosures. A trade is flagged when the
stock's sector matches a sector one of the member's committees oversees.
What it is not. This is not an
accusation of insider trading or of any wrongdoing. Holding and trading
shares in an overseen industry is legal, disclosure is exactly what the STOCK
Act requires, and many members' trades are directed by advisers or held in
accounts they do not personally control.
Deliberate limits. Only committees with narrow, specific
oversight are matched — Appropriations, Budget, Ways and Means, Judiciary and
the other broad committees touch every company in the economy, so flagging
them would make the signal meaningless. Trades are only checked when we know
the company's sector, which we don't for every stock, so treat this as a
floor rather than a complete count.
