The Players
Categories from The Playbook, worked out from the filings rather than asserted. Nobody is placed on a list by hand.
Benched Players 315 of 537 sitting members
Members with no disclosed trades in individual stocks. The Playbook calls this the standard everyone else should be held to.
This list only includes members whose filings we can actually read. Where a member has disclosures still sitting as unreadable scans, "no stock trades" is not established — those 20 are listed separately below rather than counted as clean.

Ejected
Members under formal investigation by the SEC, DOJ, or a congressional ethics committee over trading.
No entries.
This list is not computed — a formal investigation has to be documented in the public record before it appears, and every entry requires a citation. An empty list means we hold no such citation, not that none exists. Send one if you have it.
