Where’d that data come from? Do congresspeople have public portfolios?

If so, it becomes a solved problem because we can just subscribe to the top performers’ portfolios to keep up (and nullify their advantage).

If they don’t have public portfolios how was this generated?

Yes, all their portfolios are public. Unusual Whales actually tracks all their trades and offers tools to mimic their trades if you so desire. Many people watch what stocks people like Nancy Pelosi purchase and use them to guide their own decision-making.
