A new Periodic Transaction Report filed under the STOCK Act shows Hon. Kevin Hern of the U.S. House of Representatives reported a sale of Procter & Gamble Company (PG) stock. The transaction was made through a jointly-held account shared with his spouse, held via the Hern Family Revocable Trust, and dated 2026-08-24. The disclosed value falls between $50,001 and $100,000, and our internal classification tags this filing as a congress sale.
What makes this particular filing notable is its timing relative to activity inside Procter & Gamble itself. Company insider Janzaruk Matthew W. also sold PG shares on the very same date, 2026-08-24, in a transaction valued at $52,141. Both the Hern family trust’s sale and the insider sale landed on identical dates and were disclosed within 30 days of each other, a pattern worth flagging for readers tracking overlapping activity between members of Congress and corporate insiders in the same stock.
A Busy Stretch for PG on Capitol Hill
This is not the first time PG has shown up in congressional disclosures in recent weeks. Earlier filings tracked on this site include Rep. Richard McCormick’s sale of PG stock through a Roth IRA and a separate report covering Rep. David J. Taylor’s purchase of PG shares even as an insider was simultaneously selling. Readers can review that earlier filing in our coverage of Rep. David J. Taylor’s PG purchase amid insider selling, which adds useful context to the broader pattern of PG transactions moving through both congressional and corporate channels this summer.
Taken together, these filings show Procter & Gamble stock changing hands across multiple accounts tied to lawmakers and company insiders within a fairly tight window. The Hern filing itself involves a jointly-held account structured through a family revocable trust, a common vehicle used by members of Congress to manage shared assets. The STOCK Act requires this kind of disclosure specifically so the public can see when officials or their spouses buy or sell stock, regardless of the reason behind the transaction or the size of the household’s broader portfolio.
No further detail is provided in the filing beyond the transaction type, date, amount range, and holding structure. As with all Periodic Transaction Reports, this disclosure documents that a trade occurred; it does not indicate the motivation behind the sale, nor does it suggest any connection between Hern’s transaction and the insider sale beyond the shared trading date. whoisbuyingnow.com will continue tracking PG-related filings from both Capitol Hill and corporate insiders as they are made public.
