The most active Democratic stock trader in the House wants you to know he supports banning congressional stock trading.
Meet Ro Khanna.
Khanna built a national profile pushing to ban individual stock trading by members of Congress. He teamed up with Bernie Sanders on a billionaire tax. The populist brand is the whole point.
His household runs the busiest book of any House Democrat. Over $600M in volume across 37,172 trades since 2020, per Quiver Quantitative.
From Jan 2024 to April 2026, trades tied to him beat the S&P 500 by 112%, per ProCap Insights. Pelosi cleared 38.5% over the same window.
His wife's trust bought Nvidia in Feb 2024 for a 143% gain, while he sat on the subcommittee overseeing defense AI procurement (NY Post). A 2022 NYT investigation flagged 149 potential conflicts in his trades.
His answer never changes. The trades are his wife's, held in a trust, he controls none of it. It is legal and it is disclosed. It is also exactly what he says should be banned.
