US EditionRep. Omar Blames 'Discrepancy' for $30 Million Disclosure Error
Omar says the discrepancy was an accounting error as Republicans press for a fraud inquiry and the amended filing cuts the estimate to $95,000.
- On Saturday, Representative Ilhan Omar filed an amended financial disclosure reducing her reported household assets from as much as $30 million to between $18,004 and $95,000, attributing the change to an accounting error.
- The original May 14, 2025, disclosure had listed assets between $6 million and $30 million, primarily from businesses owned by her husband, Tim Mynett, including Rose Lake Capital and eStCru winery.
- Following a March 2026 inquiry from the Office of Congressional Conduct, Omar's lawyer attributed the discrepancy to "reliance on accountant professionals," calling the error unintentional.
- Omar spokeswoman Jacklyn Rogers stated the amendment "confirms what we've said all along: The congresswoman is not a millionaire," noting the correction was submitted voluntarily once identified.
- House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and federal investigators remain engaged in ongoing scrutiny, with the committee having previously referred the matter to the House Ethics Committee due to Mynett's non-compliance.
