Add two Republican members of Congress to the growing list of lawmakers whose families made a flurry of stock trades immediately before and after President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariff announcements.

Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida and his wife, Erika Donalds, bought or sold between $8,008 and $120,000 worth of stock on April 10, a week after Trump’s tariff declaration, according to a NOTUS review of new congressional financial disclosures.

Rep. Dan Newhouse of Washington state reported that his wife, Joan Galvin, dumped nearly four dozen stocks on April 11 worth between $47,047 and $705,000. (Lawmakers are only required to disclose the values of their stock purchases and sales in broad ranges.)
