Market-wide feed of periodic transaction reports filed by Senators, newest filing first, each with the transactions it disclosed. Ordered by filing date, so a late-filed report about older trades surfaces here when it is filed; most trades are disclosed well after the 45-day deadline, so a window on `transactionDate` must reach back a year or more to be representative. The archive starts with the first STOCK Act reports (Senate 2012, House 2014); `since=2012-01-01` pages through all of it and is the bulk-backfill path. Paper-filed reports are included with `parseStatus` `unparsed_paper` and no transactions; `parse_failed` marks a report that could not be read. `notificationDate` and `capGainsOver200` are always null for the Senate. Defaults to the last 30 days.
