Securities disclosures
Our index holds no periodic transaction reports for Ben Ray Luján as of 22 July 2026. That is not the same as none having been filed: under the STOCK Act of 2012 members have 45 days to disclose a securities transaction over $1,000, and our copy of the record can lag behind theirs.
Index last updated 22 July 2026 — 86 days ago. Newer filings may not appear here yet.
