Democratic Rep. Ed Case of Hawaii and Republican Rep. Rich McCormick of Georgia are the latest members of Congress to violate a federal law meant to ensure transparency in stock and other personal financial trading, a NOTUS review of congressional records shows.

Case was late in reporting seven purchases of Apple stock by his spouse, according to a filing on Monday with the House.

The stocks were purchased between a few months and nearly two years ago. Under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act, lawmakers have no more than 45 days to disclose stock trades from the time they were made.
