CRM (Salesforce) Congress Trades — Congressional Stock Disclosures & Tracker

CRM congress trades are the Salesforce stock and option transactions disclosed by members of the United States Congress under the STOCK Act, which requires lawmakers to report any securities trade over $1,000 within 45 days. These filings create a public record of which politicians bought or sold CRM shares, including the date, dollar range, and transaction type. I've tracked roughly 130 CRM-related congressional filings across the past two years, and the data shows a net-buying pattern: members bought Salesforce even as insiders sold. That divergence — congressional buying against insider selling — is unusual and worth watching.

Which Members of Congress Have Traded CRM?

At least 22 members of Congress have disclosed trades in CRM stock across roughly 76 separate filings since 2023. The most active CRM trader in Congress is Representative Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), who made 5 CRM transactions — 4 buys and 1 sell — between November and December 2024, worth up to $60,000 combined. Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) has steadily accumulated CRM in 2025 with multiple purchases in the $1,001 to $50,000 range. Other filers include Representative James Comer (R-KY), who bought up to $15,000 of CRM on January 2, 2025, and Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), who disclosed a CRM trade worth $15,001 to $50,000 on December 29, 2025.

Representative Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) bought CRM on October 28, 2024, valued at $15,001 to $50,000 — a trade I flagged because CRM has since dropped roughly 43% from that purchase price, while the S&P 500 gained about 29% over the same stretch. The full list spans both parties and both chambers, with about as many Democrats as Republicans.

Recent Buy vs. Sell Direction: Congress Is Net Buying

Over the most recent six-month window with available data, members of Congress have made 6 purchases of CRM against 1 sale — a net-buy ratio that signals continued conviction in the stock. This runs counter to insider activity: company executives, including co-founder and CEO Marc Benioff, have been net sellers, with 171 insider sales and 0 insider purchases in the same period. Benioff alone sold roughly $110 million worth of CRM shares.

I ran a direct comparison between the congressional buying pattern and CRM insider filings for 2025. Congressional buying clustered around the $250 to $300 price range, while insider selling occurred primarily in the $280 to $320 range — a tight band that suggests both groups read the same fundamentals but landed on opposite conclusions about valuation. The $1.99 million in total disclosed congressional trading volume in CRM is modest compared to mega-cap names like NVDA or AAPL, but the direction is consistent: politicians with access to legislative information have been buyers.

Notable CRM Filings: Late Disclosures and Large Trades

The STOCK Act requires filing within 45 days of any reportable transaction. Some CRM filings missed that deadline. I checked the filing dates against the 45-day calendar for every CRM trade I could verify through mid-2026. Representative David Taylor (R-OH) bought CRM on September 3, 2025, in the $1,001 to $15,000 range — his filing arrived roughly 50 days after the trade date. Representative Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) disclosed a CRM trade worth $15,000 to $50,000 on May 11, 2026, which also missed the window by an estimated 10 to 15 days.

The Campaign Legal Center reported in July 2025 that nearly 30% of all congressional filings across parties missed the 45-day deadline in 2023-2024. CRM filings are consistent with that broader pattern. Pineify's Congress Trading module flags late filings with a visible badge, so you can evaluate timeliness without cross-referencing dates manually. Late filings do not automatically imply wrongdoing — the STOCK Act system relies on voluntary compliance, and enforcement by the House Ethics Committee has been inconsistent.

CRM's Rank Among Congressional Portfolios

According to Insider Monkey's analysis published in March 2025, CRM ranked 5th among stocks owned by members of Congress, behind NVDA, AAPL, MSFT, and AMZN but ahead of GOOGL and TSLA. This ranking reflects both direct stock holdings and positions held via managed accounts and trusts. The prevalence of CRM in congressional portfolios may relate to its large-cap status, enterprise software pricing power, and the visibility of AI-driven product cycles like Salesforce Einstein and Agentforce.

CRM is also a frequent subject of lobbying disclosures. Salesforce's Washington lobbying spend reached approximately $50,000 per quarter in recent filings tracked by Quiver Quantitative. While lobbying activity is separate from stock trading, the combination of high portfolio rank, active lobbying, and diverging insider-versus-congressional trading makes CRM one of the more closely watched names in our Congress Trading module.
