Mr. Lamar Smith

Representative Lamar Smith (R-TX) served Texas's 21st congressional district from 1987 to 2019, representing the San Antonio and Austin areas for over three decades. A Yale and SMU Law graduate, Smith was best known as Chairman of the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee and the House Judiciary Committee, where he championed intellectual property protections and sparked controversy with his climate change skepticism. Smith's trading record shows limited activity with just 11 disclosed transactions concentrated in a single month (December 2013), totaling between $11,000 and $165,000 across technology and industrial stocks including Apple, Citrix Systems, and BorgWarner. Since his retirement from Congress in January 2019, Smith has shown no recent trading activity on public disclosures, reflecting his departure from federal office and congressional reporting requirements.
