AOC's Net Worth, by Her Own Disclosure
Every member of Congress files a financial disclosure — an itemized list of what they own, owe and earn. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's is one of the shortest in the building. It reports about $41,000 in total assets, spread across four ordinary bank and brokerage accounts — not a single share of stock, no real estate on the form, no debt, and zero trades. In a body where senators disclose hundreds of millions, she sits near the very bottom. We show the money; you draw the conclusions.
Her entire disclosed net worth fits in four ordinary accounts — a savings account, a checking account, a small brokerage balance and one bond fund. The richest senator discloses more than that in airplanes alone.
The Filing Every Member of Congress Has to Make
Under the STOCK Act, every senator and representative files an annual Personal Financial Disclosure — a list of assets, debts and outside income, each in a value bracket — plus a periodic transaction report for every trade. Most disclosures run for pages. Ocasio-Cortez's runs for a few lines.
We parsed it. Every figure here comes from her own House filings, pinned to her most recent annual disclosure. There is almost nothing to parse — and that absence is the story.
How Much Is AOC Worth?
Taking the midpoint of every bracket, her most recent filing shows about $41,000 in total assets and no liabilities — so her gross assets and her net worth are essentially the same number, within a bracketed range of roughly $16,000 to $66,000. There is no real estate on the form, no business, no private fund. Four bank and brokerage accounts, and that's the disclosure.
Where the Money Is
There isn't much shape to show, and that's the point. Essentially all of her disclosed assets sit in cash — bank and brokerage accounts — with a single small bond mutual fund. No stocks. No property. No funds. By disclosed-asset midpoint:
The Entire Portfolio — Four Lines
This is not a selection of her largest holdings. This is all of them — the complete disclosed portfolio of a sitting member of the U.S. House.
| Holding | What it is | Owner | Disclosed value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Allied First Bank — Savings | Savings account | Self | $15K–$50K |
| Charles Schwab Bank — Checking | Checking account | Self | $1K–$15K |
| Charles Schwab One — Brokerage | Brokerage cash | Self | Under $1,001 |
| Prudential High Yield Z | Bond mutual fund | Self | Under $1,001 |
$41,000 here. $480,000,000 across the aisle.

Where She Ranks in Congress
Ocasio-Cortez sits near the bottom of the congressional net-worth range. The contrast with the top is almost hard to plot on the same axis: Sen. Rick Scott discloses close to $480 million — roughly 11,000 times her disclosed net worth — and even Sen. Bernie Sanders, no plutocrat, shows about $1 million. The reason the “average” member of Congress looks rich is that a handful of fortunes at the very top drag the number up; the median is far lower, and members like AOC sit beneath it.

How We Count It
Every figure aggregates parsed line items from Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's congressional Personal Financial Disclosure. Asset and liability figures use the midpoints of the form's value brackets, which are wide by design — though at this scale the range is narrow ($16K–$66K). Personal residences are excluded from the form; she discloses none. Trading figures come from periodic STOCK Act transaction reports, of which she has none.

All 538 members of Congress — plus the President and Cabinet — file the same disclosures. We read them, rank every fortune, and score every trade against the bills and committees behind it. Start free, no card required.
