Evidence

Julie has supported a "ban on congressional stock trading" by signing on as a cosponsor, and says she divested her personal stock holdings.

Official campaign issue page says Johnson supports a congressional stock-trading ban and reduced her own holdings after entering Congress; it does not explicitly spell out the spouse/dependent-children scope.

At the markup, Johnson said, "There's no porridge in the bowl," rejecting the GOP bill as too weak and backing a broader ban push.

BI reported Johnson publicly criticizing the committee bill as insufficient while Democrats pushed amendments for broader stock-trading restrictions.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Johnson publicly supported a congressional stock-trading ban, cosponsored related efforts, and said she divested her own holdings. That is meaningful advocacy, but the evidence does not show enactment of a binding prohibition covering members, spouses, and dependent children, so the promise was not fully delivered.
