Billy Long’s stock disclosures — and why we can’t show the trades

Billy Long (House) has filed 26 disclosures under the STOCK Act, from Mar 6, 2015 to Mar 8, 2022. We hold every one of them, and 26 are a form we cannot machine-read.

What’s actually wrong

26 of those filings are image scans: a photograph of a paper form, with no text layer. Our parser reads the text layer, so for those there is nothing to read — no tickers, no amounts, no dates of trade. That is a limitation of our pipeline, not a fact about Billy Long’s trading, and we would rather say so than show you an empty table that looks like an answer.

It is also why Billy Long does not appear on our copy-return leaderboard. A member we cannot read cannot be backtested, and inventing a zero for them would rank them against people whose trades we actually have.

Every filing we hold

Newest first, with what our parser got from each. Every row links to the original document on the House Clerk’s site, so you can open it yourself.
