A newly filed Periodic Transaction Report shows that a dependent child of Rep. April McClain Delaney sold shares of STERIS plc (STE) on August 25, 2026. The transaction, disclosed under the STOCK Act, falls within the $100,001 to $250,000 range and is filed as a sale on the member’s public record.
STOCK Act disclosures like this one are required by law for members of Congress and their immediate family, including dependent children, whenever a reportable securities transaction occurs. The filing itself is not an allegation of wrongdoing — it is simply part of the transparency framework Congress imposed on itself. Our classification tags this filing as a congress sale, consistent with how we track these disclosures across the site.
An Insider Sale in the Same Window
What makes this filing notable is its proximity to other activity in STERIS stock. Company insider Sohi Mohsen sold shares of STE on August 12, 2026, in a transaction valued at $349,921 — just under two weeks before the McClain Delaney family’s disclosed sale and well within the same 30-day window. Whether these two transactions are connected is not something we can determine from the public record, but the timing places them in the same short stretch of trading activity around STERIS.
This is not the first time STE has shown up in our congressional trading tracker. Back in July, we covered Rep. Jared Moskowitz’s sale of STERIS shares ahead of an insider sale, a filing that followed a similar pattern of congressional trading activity occurring close to insider transactions at the company. Two separate members of Congress disclosing STE sales within a matter of weeks, each near insider activity, is the kind of pattern that tends to draw attention from readers who follow these filings closely.
STERIS plc, traded under the ticker STE, is a medical device and sterilization services company. The current filing does not disclose the specific dollar amount of the sale beyond the reported range, nor does it specify what prompted the transaction. As with all dependent-related disclosures, the trade was made on behalf of a minor child rather than directly by the member of Congress.
We will continue monitoring STE for additional Periodic Transaction Reports and insider filings as they become public. Readers interested in broader portfolio tracking beyond individual congressional trades may also want to look at our coverage of institutional filings, including quarterly 13F updates.
