Transactions worth roughly $24,000 in Salesforce stock moved through the household and accounts tied to Rep. Ro Khanna during a one‑week stretch in February, according to a newly filed congressional disclosure.
The California Democrat reported a sequence of trades involving CRM, the cloud software giant widely viewed as a bellwether for corporate technology spending. The activity included a purchase by Khanna’s spouse followed days later by two reported sales attributed to a dependent child account.
The trades occurred between Feb. 17 and Feb. 24, a period when enterprise software stocks were drawing investor attention as companies weighed technology budgets and artificial‑intelligence investments across the broader software‑as‑a‑service market.
Salesforce transactions reported in February
- Feb. 17, 2026 — Buy: $1,000–$15,000 (Spouse)
- Feb. 19, 2026 — Sell: $1,000–$15,000 (Dependent child)
- Feb. 24, 2026 — Sell: $1,000–$15,000 (Dependent child)
Each disclosure lists a range rather than an exact figure, as required by congressional reporting rules. Combined, the transactions represent an estimated total value of about $24,000.
Salesforce, which trades on the New York Stock Exchange, has a market capitalization of roughly $180.7 billion and recently traded near $192.83 per share. The company generates most of its revenue from subscription‑based enterprise software delivered through its cloud platform. Its product suite expanded significantly through acquisitions such as Slack and Tableau, positioning the company at the center of workplace collaboration, analytics, and customer relationship management.
A widely held tech name on Capitol Hill
Khanna is far from the only lawmaker with exposure to the company. Disclosure filings show at least 46 members of Congress have reported trades involving Salesforce at some point, underscoring the popularity of large‑cap technology stocks within congressional portfolios.
The congressman represents Silicon Valley and serves on the House Armed Services Committee and the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, along with multiple subcommittees that focus on cybersecurity, information technology, and government innovation. Those assignments place him close to policy debates involving federal technology procurement, cybersecurity standards, and the broader digital economy.
Because of that proximity to the tech sector, Khanna has long been one of Capitol Hill’s most prominent voices on innovation policy, antitrust debates involving large technology companies, and competition with China in advanced industries.
Disclosure rules and timing
Members of Congress are required under the STOCK Act to disclose most stock trades within 45 days. The law was designed to increase transparency and discourage lawmakers from using nonpublic information obtained through their official duties when making investment decisions.
Salesforce remains closely watched by investors because its performance often reflects broader trends in corporate software demand. Analysts frequently treat the company’s results and stock performance as a signal of how businesses are spending on cloud services, customer‑data platforms, and productivity software.
As congressional financial disclosures continue to be filed throughout the year, Salesforce transactions — including Khanna’s February activity — are part of a broader stream of filings that track latest congressional trades across dozens of industries.
