A new disclosure filed with the U.S. House of Representatives shows that Rep. Tim Walberg reported a purchase of Lockheed Martin Corporation common stock (LMT) made through an account held jointly with his spouse. The transaction is dated February 7, 2025, and falls within the $1,001 to $15,000 disclosure range required under the STOCK Act.
Because members of Congress and their spouses are only required to report the value of a trade in broad bands rather than an exact dollar figure, the public record shows a range rather than a precise purchase price. The filing lists the transaction type as a purchase, and Lockheed Martin is identified in the report by its standard ticker, LMT.
A Notably Delayed Filing
One detail stands out in this particular disclosure: the report was filed 476 days after the actual transaction date. The STOCK Act generally requires members of Congress to disclose covered transactions within 45 days of becoming aware of them. This filing arrived well outside that window. WhoIsBuyingNow.com is noting this timing gap as a factual matter of public record, without speculating on why the disclosure was delayed.
Late filings under the STOCK Act are not unusual across Capitol Hill, and a delay of this kind does not, by itself, indicate any wrongdoing or violation of law beyond the timing requirement itself. The disclosure obligation exists to give the public visibility into potential financial conflicts of interest, and the filing itself is the mechanism by which that transparency occurs, however delayed.
For readers tracking defense-sector positioning among institutional and political filers, Lockheed Martin is a name that shows up periodically across different types of disclosures, from congressional Periodic Transaction Reports like this one to institutional 13F filings from major asset managers.

As with all Periodic Transaction Reports, this filing is a snapshot rather than a full explanation of investment strategy or intent. WhoIsBuyingNow.com will continue to monitor House and Senate financial disclosures as they are filed and will note any amendments or follow-up reports connected to this transaction should they become part of the public record.
