Overview
The STOCK Act includes several provisions affecting executive and legislative branch employees. For example, the Act makes clear that executive branch employees, Members of Congress, and employees of Congress are not exempt from insider trading prohibitions under securities laws. In addition, the STOCK Act requires that certain financial disclosure forms be made available to the public via official websites, and that some financial transactions that exceed $1,000 be filed within 30 to 45 days for certain executive and legislative branch employees, as well as Members and employees of Congress.
