Evidence

Congress.gov lists H.R.5106 as the Restore Trust in Congress Act, with the official title: "To amend chapter 131 of title 5 to prohibit Members of Congress and their spouses and dependents from owning or trading stocks". The page lists Rep. Julie Johnson [D-TX-32] as a cosponsor on 11/17/2025 and shows the bill remained introduced/referred to House Administration.

Johnson took concrete same-term action toward stronger congressional ethics rules by cosponsoring a stock ownership/trading ban for members and immediate family, but the measure had not become law as of the available record.

The Clerk’s discharge petition seeks consideration of H.Res.725 for H.R.1908, a bill "to prohibit stock trading and ownership by Members of Congress and their spouses and dependent children". The signatures list shows Julie Johnson, Texas TX-32, Democratic, signed on January 14, 2026.

Johnson also signed an official discharge petition attempting to force House consideration of a congressional stock-trading ban, showing serious follow-through, though the petition and underlying bill remained unresolved.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Johnson took same-term federal action consistent with the promise by cosponsoring H.R.5106, the Restore Trust in Congress Act, and signing a discharge petition to force House consideration of H.R.1908, both aimed at stronger congressional ethics rules through restrictions on member stock ownership or trading. However, the cited measures remained introduced, referred, or otherwise unresolved rather than enacted, and the record does not show delivered tougher enforcement or broader transparency reforms. This supports partial credit for serious follow-through, not full delivery.
