Anyone have a link to the actual disclosure document? I can’t seem to find any way to actually view it. This just doesn’t seem to pass the smell test. She’s making a salary of $174k per year and has been in Congress for 7 years. I wonder if this excludes retirement accounts like 401ks and IRAs. That would make sense. But I would expect her to have at least $100k in a retirement account by now. I mean she did go from working as a bartender to being a member of Congress. That kind of jump in pay usually lets one really up their retirement savings at least.
That’s a senate page, but it might still apply. The TSP is not subject to disclosure, neither is an IRA in normal situations. I think AOCs retirement probably doesn’t have to be disclosed and hopefully is pretty stuffed.
She needs to keep a home in both DC and NYC, two of the most expensive cities for housing. That will eat up a LOT of income. She also has student loans to pay.
She has a relatively high paying job, and this is as far as she’s gotten. Imagine the average college graduate, who is probably making far less that $100k annually.
Student loans are crushing our economy, and thousands more students graduate every year with the same millstone around their necks, and our children economy. It is a National Security Threat that will only grow worse with time. Student loan debt makes EVERYONE susceptible to bribes, espionage, and corruption.

I mean, congress has a really nice retirement package if I recall correctly. Maybe she is just banking on that
Are 401ks subject to disclosure? Also, 175k isn’t that much when you live in DC. I know that’s a joke to a lot of people, but DC is crazy expensive.
