Members of Congress trade stocks, and the law makes every trade public.

Just pick and compare.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
You've probably seen the headlines: a member of Congress posts a stock return that makes hedge funds look slow. And every one of those trades is public by law. So I kept wondering, if you'd just copied them, would you actually be ahead?
I couldn't find a simple way to check, so I built Copy Congress.
Pick a member, pick a dollar amount, and it shows what backing every trade they disclosed would be worth today, against the same money in the S&P 500 over the exact same dates.
Some results are wild. Copy Marjorie Taylor Greene's trades and you'd be up 37%, against 16% for the S&P 500 over the same window. Others barely beat the market, or lose to it. Either way you can just check, free, no account.
