	title: "Open US Government Disclosure Dataset: congressional trades, SEC insider Form 4, and 13F holdings with a point-in-time publication clock"
	abstract: >-
	A free, open dataset of US government financial-disclosure data: House and
	Senate congressional Periodic Transaction Reports, SEC insider Form 4
	transactions, and SEC 13F-HR institutional holdings. Every row carries
	published_at, the instant the fact became publicly available, and
	clock_precision recording how that instant was established. For House
	filings the clock is the publishing server's own HTTP Last-Modified header,
	giving second-resolution first-party publication timestamps on 41,380 of
	41,454 clerk index rows (99.8%) back to 2008, which makes the corpus
	point-in-time correct: filtering published_at <= T yields what a researcher
	could have known at T. Coverage denominators, including where coverage is
	poor, are published alongside the data.

	# misstatement LICENSE-DATA exists to prevent: a CC0 dedication is an act by a
	# rights HOLDER, and under Feist v. Rural Telephone we hold no copyright in the
	# disclosure facts. Claiming to waive rights we never had implies a publisher who
	# declines to waive could lock the same facts up, which is backwards. See
	# LICENSE-DATA, which is a public-domain STATEMENT for the facts plus a narrowly
	# scoped CC0 waiver over the thin layer we did author.
