U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) disclosed buying stock in a handful of public companies including Palantir Technologies. The latest purchase disclosed Friday could lead to more scrutiny ofCongress Trading activity.
What Happened: Greene is one of the most well-known members of Congress and her close relationship with President Donald Trump and growing relationship with billionaire Elon Musk, leader of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, could give her an inside track on how the White House administration will delegate new and existing deals.
The congresswoman went several years without disclosing new stock purchases before unveiling a handful in May 2024. That disclosure has been followed up with trades every month or two, including the most recent trades made in February 2025, as reported by Benzinga's Government Trades page.
Here are the latest stocks bought by Greene, with each transaction totaling $1,000 to $15,000 in size.
Adobe Inc
Apple Inc
Devon Energy
Goldman Sachs
Intel Corporation
Meta Platforms
Microsoft Corporation
Norfolk Southern
Palantir Technologies
United Parcel Service
Several of the trades made by Greene could raise red flags as conflicts of interest given her congressional committee assignments. Greene is a member of the following committees:
House Committee on Oversight and Accountability: Chairwoman, Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.)
House Committee on Homeland Security: Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability
Greene has made trades in technology stocks before, which could influence her role in the subcommittee on counterterrorism and intelligence.
Benzinga contacted Greene for comment on this story and she had not responded at the time of publication.
One of the newest trades could represent the largest potential conflict of interest: Palantir Technologies is a company that regularly lands government contracts. As a member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, Greene could have an inside track on upcoming contracts with Palantir.
Why It's Important: Greene is not the only member of Congress betting on Palantir Technologies stock. Three other members of Congress have bought the stock in recent weeks.
Here are the other members of Congress who disclosed buying Palantir stock, with each purchase valued at $1,000 to $15,000 according to Benzinga's Government Trades data.
Gilbert Ray Cisneros (D-Calif.)
James Comer (R-Ky.)
Julie Johnson (D-Texas)
Palantir has ties to the Trump administration, with multiple founders of the company supporting the president, including Peter Thiel, who served as a venture capital mentor to Vice President J.D. Vance.
Several Palantir co-founders have been supportive of the work being done by D.O.G.E. and Musk, which could lead to the company receiving deals to help improve efficiency and government spending in the future.
Greene ranked 23rd among members of Congress with a 30.2% trading return in 2024 according to an annual report from Unusual Whales.
Calls to ban members of Congress from buying and selling stocks have risen in recent years, but no public congressional vote has taken place on the measure.
PLTR Price Action: Palantir Technologies stock is up 4.6% to $124.62 on Tuesday. The stock hit a new all-time high of $125 earlier in Tuesday's trading session. Palantir stock is up over 420% in the last year.
