Paul Tonko: No Disclosed Stock Trades

Rep. Paul Tonko, the Democrat representing New York's 20th District, has no disclosed securities transactions on record in Quantellect's congressional trading database. As of August 22, 2026, that places him among 237 of the House's 437 sitting members, and 276 of all 537 sitting members of Congress, who show zero disclosed trades. Tonko's current term runs from January 3, 2025 to January 3, 2027.

For most members of Congress, a blank transaction record is not unusual. Under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act of 2012, House members must report certain purchases, sales, or exchanges involving securities associated with themselves, a spouse, or a dependent child when the gross amount of a single transaction exceeds $1,000. A Periodic Transaction Report is due by the earlier of 30 days after the filer becomes aware of the transaction or 45 days after the transaction date. The House Committee on Ethics financial disclosure instruction guide excludes several categories from PTR reporting, including purchases and sales of mutual funds or ETFs and transactions involving assets in a federal retirement program such as the Thrift Savings Plan. If there are no reportable transactions, no PTR is due, although some transactions may still need to appear on an annual financial disclosure. A zero-transaction record in this database therefore reflects the absence of a qualifying transaction disclosure in the dataset, not necessarily the absence of financial activity in general.

What a Disclosure Record Would Show

A reportable transaction involving Tonko, his spouse, or a dependent child would identify the security, transaction type, disclosed value range, and transaction date as distinct from the date it was reported. Quantellect's data model preserves that distinction and also retains reported attribution. A transaction disclosed under a member's name may involve the member, a spouse, a joint interest, or a dependent child. Because House filers may, but are not always required to, use SP, DC, or JT labels, missing attribution should not be treated as evidence that the member personally made the trade. With no transaction disclosures on record for Tonko, there is no attribution detail to report and none should be inferred.

The same absence applies to sector and issuer patterns. Quantellect tracks which securities and sectors appear most frequently across a member's disclosed transactions, but that measure only has meaning once a transaction history exists. For Tonko, there is no transaction-frequency data, no year-by-year transaction history, and no basis for comparing an earlier period of activity with a more recent one. The database holds a single state for this record: zero disclosed transactions, with no first or latest transaction date to anchor a timeline.

Score Coverage

Quantellect publishes a trading-activity score for 76 members of Congress as of August 21, 2026, of whom 73 are currently sitting. Tonko is not among them. No score row exists for him as of the latest published score date, consistent with a record that contains no disclosed transactions. Quantellect therefore assigns him no score, tier, coverage state, cohort rank, or cohort size in this profile.

As of August 22, 2026, the zero-transaction category includes 237 of the House's 437 sitting members and 276 of all 537 sitting members of Congress. Quantellect groups these members together solely because each has zero transaction rows in the database. For Tonko, the empty transaction record also leaves the purchase, sale, and other-transaction counts at zero, while the first and latest transaction dates, annual activity history, security-frequency data, and sector activity remain empty.

About This Data

This profile is generated from disclosures filed under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act of 2012 and reported according to the House Committee on Ethics financial disclosure instruction guide.
