Markwayne Mullin Violated the STOCK Act by Failing to Disclose Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars in Trades

“Much like tax returns, financial disclosures occasionally need to be amended to reflect the most accurate, up-to-date information. That’s what we did here,” said a Mullin spokesperson.

Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin violated a federal financial conflicts of interest and disclosure law by failing to properly disclose hundreds of thousands of dollars in stock and bond trades, a NOTUS review of new congressional documents found.

The Oklahoma senator was two-and-a-half years late reporting seven stock purchases by his wife and about one-and-a-half years late disclosing three Oklahoma-connected municipal security purchases for himself, according to a disclosure Mullin filed Wednesday with the U.S. Senate.

The Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act, or STOCK Act, requires a member of Congress to disclose any stock, bond or cryptocurrency trade done by themselves, spouse or dependent child within 45 days.
