Scott Peters' 14-Row House PTR Includes a 47-Day Municipal-Bond Gap

House PTR #20035191 identifies Hon. Scott H. Peters, California's 50th District, and is digitally signed August 17, 2026. Its transaction table contains 14 rows, each marked with the spouse owner code SP. The report shows seven purchases and seven sales, including four partial-sale rows.

The printed transaction dates run from July 1 through July 30, 2026. Every row shows July 31, 2026 in the Notification Date column. August 17 is the public filing and signature date; it is not the date on which all 14 transactions occurred.

That date separation matters for a filing with both municipal securities and Treasury bills. The report is a household disclosure record, not a same-day trading log or a statement of who directed each investment decision.

Eleven of the 14 rows carry the House asset code [GS], which the House's asset-code reference defines as Government Securities and Agency Debt. The named issues include Charlotte-Mecklenburg, several Los Angeles-area issuers, a Pittsburgh successor agency, and U.S. Treasury Bill entries.

The other three rows carry [OT] and name Audax Senior Loan Fund ST LP, Smash Capital Fund II LP, and Volo Ventures GP II, LP. The report does not provide an exchange ticker for these entries; the visible descriptions for the Audax and Smash rows identify them as pooled investment funds.

This is why the filing reads differently from a conventional congressional stock-trade list. It reports securities and investment vehicles by the names on the form, while the current Congressional Trader feed is organized around normalized ticker-bearing purchase and sale rows.

The House form does not disclose exact transaction values. Its reported bands run from $15,001-$50,000 through $500,001-$1,000,000, and two rows use the label "Spouse/DC Over $1,000,000": the Audax Senior Loan Fund purchase and one U.S. Treasury Bill purchase.

That over-$1 million label is a disclosure bucket, not a precise position value. It should not be converted into an exact purchase amount, a portfolio total, or a claim about the value of the underlying account. The other bands carry the same range limitation.

The mix of large ranges is useful as a transparency fact because it shows the scale categories Peters reported. It does not identify the price, yield, maturity value, share count, or investment rationale for any row.

The Los Angeles Cnty CA TRANS [GS] purchase is dated July 1, 2026, shows July 31, 2026 as its notification date, and appears in the report signed and made public on August 17. That is a 47-calendar-day transaction-to-public-filing interval, the longest in the 14-row report. The other 13 rows have transaction-to-filing intervals of 18 to 26 days.

The House Committee on Ethics says covered transactions are due by the earlier of 30 days after the filer becomes aware of the transaction or 45 days after the transaction. The PTR prints a Notification Date, not an adjudicated finding about the filer's awareness. If July 31 is used as the awareness input, the 30-day date is August 30; the 45-day date from July 1 is August 15. The earlier date is August 15, two calendar days before the August 17 filing.

That is a reproducible timing comparison using the printed fields and the Ethics calculator's rule. The PTR itself does not state that the Committee found a violation, assessed a late fee, or opened an enforcement matter. The article therefore describes the gap without turning it into a legal conclusion.

The official House Clerk profile lists Peters on the Committee on Energy and Commerce, including its Communications and Technology, Energy, and Environment subcommittees, and on the Committee on the Budget. Those assignments make the disclosure relevant to readers studying congressional financial transparency and public-sector securities.

Nothing in PTR #20035191 connects a particular bond, Treasury bill, or other investment to Peters' committee work. The public record does not show who selected each asset, whether any issuer was discussed in an official setting, or whether Peters possessed nonpublic information. Committee overlap is context, not evidence of improper conduct.

A read-only snapshot of Congressional Trader's production data had 10,316 normalized trade rows, a latest filing_date of August 17, 2026, and a latest observed trade-row created_at on August 18, 2026. The raw source house-ptr-2026-20035191 returned zero normalized rows.

The zero-row result is a coverage boundary, not evidence that the House report was empty. The current production model is ticker-oriented and represents purchase, sale, and partial-sale events; Peters' official rows are non-ticker government securities and other investments identified by full names. The official PDF therefore controls the complete 14-row count, owner fields, dates, transaction types, asset codes, and amount labels.

For readers using the live feed, the practical rule is simple: an absent ticker row cannot be treated as an absent official filing. Source-level research must check the House PDF when a PTR contains government securities, pooled funds, or other names that do not map cleanly to an exchange ticker.

The filing establishes that Peters reported 14 spouse-owned transactions on August 17, 2026, with seven purchases, seven sales, 11 government-security rows, three other-investment rows, July 1–30 transaction dates, July 31 notification dates, and disclosure ranges that include two "Spouse/DC Over $1,000,000" labels.

It does not establish exact values, who directed the investments, a motive, a committee-related benefit, insider trading, an ethics violation, a late-filing penalty, or future performance. The 47-day gap is a useful public-record timing fact; the meaning of that gap must remain separate from any enforcement conclusion the source does not make.
