Six Members of Congress Purchase SpaceX Stock
Six members of the U.S. Congress have purchased shares in Elon Musk's publicly traded company, SpaceX (SPCX), according to recent financial disclosures. The lawmakers include five Republicans and one Democrat—Rep. Gilbert Cisneros from California—who invested between $182,000 and $480,000 collectively into the stock since December 2025. The purchases have drawn attention due to potential conflicts of interest, as several lawmakers sit on committees overseeing areas relevant to SpaceX's operations. For example, Reps. William Timmons and John McGuire are involved in military affairs oversight, while Rep. John James sits on the Energy and Commerce Committee that oversees Starlink. SpaceX stock has been volatile since its public debut, currently trading below purchase prices for many of these lawmakers. Some representatives have distanced themselves from the trades or stated they were managed by external advisors.
