MINNEAPOLIS, MN — U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar has filed an amended financial disclosure after she said an earlier report overstated the value of assets tied to her household finances.
The amended filing, submitted March 26, lists partnership income of $100,001 to $1,000,000 from Rose Lake Capital LLC and $2,501 to $5,000 from ESTCRU LLC.
It also lists student loan debt and credit card debt, each in the range of $15,001 to $50,000, and shows no disclosed gifts or transactions.
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Omar said she is not a millionaire and said the earlier discrepancy stemmed from accounting errors tied to business valuations.
The Journal reported that her previous filing had put the couple's assets between $6 million and $30 million, while the amended filing put them between $18,004 and $95,000.
"The amended disclosure confirms what we've said all along: The congresswoman is not a millionaire," Omar spokeswoman Jacklyn Rogers told the Journal.
Rogers also said the filing was corrected once the discrepancy was identified.
The filing itself shows Rose Lake Capital and ESTCRU still listed among the household's financial interests, but with no asset value disclosed for those businesses in the amended report. It also includes a February 2024 trip to Cuba paid for by the Center for Democracy in the Americas, with lodging and meals covered.
