Checked against the record · Virginia 2nd District 2026

Does Elaine Luria support banning members of Congress from trading stocks?

Not comparable yet. This is a plan for a future term, and the bill titles from her two terms in Congress show no action on stock trading either way.

Elaine G. Luria

Money in politics: banning congressional stock trading

Not comparable yet

What they say

The first item of her plan is a ban on members of Congress and their families trading individual stocks while in office.

“I support banning members of Congress and their families from trading individual stocks while holding office.”

What the record shows

Across the 116th and 117th Congresses she sponsored 45 bills and resolutions and two floor amendments and cosponsored 1,002 measures. Reading the official titles of all of them, the check found none on congressional stock trading, insider trading by members, divestment, blind trusts, or members' conflicts of interest. This is a proposal for a future term, and her two terms hold no action on it either way.

Limit: A candidate's plan for a term not yet served has no matching record, so this card compares nothing and reaches no verdict about her. The search was of official bill and resolution titles across her 1,049 sponsorships and cosponsorships; a measure whose title does not name the subject, or work done inside a committee or a rule, would not appear. It says nothing about any other candidate's record on the same subject. Her words here were read in the Internet Archive's snapshot of 2026-08-03, because her campaign site returns HTTP 403 to automated readers, and the wording is unconfirmed against the live page.
