Scandals & crimes ledger

resolvedSTOCK Act Late Disclosure Violation — Trupanion Stock Trades
ethics-violation · 2022-03-17 · U.S. House of Representatives (STOCK Act administrative enforcement) · Mandatory $200 civil fine paid by Schneider for late disclosure of two stock transactions (a sale and a charitable donation of Trupanion Inc. stock totaling up to $200,000) that occurred on December 10, 2021, but were not disclosed until March 17, 2022 — approximately two months past the 45-day STOCK Act deadline. Schneider's office attributed the delay to a missed mouse click; his chief of staff stated that stocks came from an investment partnership his wife inherited and she sold them without notifying him.
Schneider violated the STOCK Act by disclosing two Trupanion stock transactions (December 10, 2021) roughly two months late, paying the standard statutory $200 fine. His office called it an administrative error. No ethics committee investigation or further action followed.
