THE MILLIONAIRES OF CONGRESS RICHES LISTING OF SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM BOTH DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS

Each year since 1990, CQ Roll Call has reviewed the financial disclosures of all 541 senators, representatives and delegates to determine the 50 richest members of Congress. This year's report, derived from forms covering the calendar year 2013, shows it took a net worth of $7.47 million to crack the exclusive club. For the first time, we went a step further by publishing a ranking of every single lawmaker by their minimum net worth. That full list with breakdowns of members' assets and liabilities is found below.

It was a good year for members of Congress in one respect: their pocketbooks.
Roll Call has for decades calculated the “50 Richest” members of Congress by poring through financial disclosure forms, and this year, we’ve taken the added step of tallying the minimum net worth of every member of Congress(Visit our interactive to see the full ranking, which includes representatives, senators and delegates. Because there are three vacancies in Congress, there are 538 members on the list.)
The combined minimum net worth of Congress jumped — up more than $150 million to $2.1 billion — according to a CQ Roll Call analysis of the financial disclosure forms for every member of Congress and delegate who filed one for 2013.
