Since taking office
Compares the candidate report from 2018, filed before taking office with the 2025 report, using the same method for both. Changes can come from a spouse’s assets, market moves, property values, new debts or how filers choose bands, and the forms do not say which. We do not guess.
What the latest report lists
| Savings account, Allied Bank | $15,001–$50,000 |
| Checking account, Charles Schwab Bank | $1,001–$15,000 |
| 401(k) from a former employer (T. Rowe Price fund) | $1,001–$15,000 |
| Brokerage account, Charles Schwab | $1–$1,000 |
| Debt: federal student loans (taken out 2007–2011) | $15,001–$50,000 |

Where the money comes from
Main sources named in the disclosures and the reporting we cite. The forms don’t split the total into exact amounts, so we don’t show percentages.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reported household assets minus debts of −$33K to $66K, a midpoint of about $17K, on her latest financial disclosure (Amendment to 2025 annual report, filed August 7, 2026).
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has represented New York's 14th congressional district since January 2019. She won her seat in 2018 after defeating 10-term incumbent Joe Crowley in the Democratic primary, one of the biggest upsets of that year, and took office at 29 as the youngest woman ever elected to Congress.
Her financial disclosures are among the shortest in Congress. Each one lists only a handful of bank accounts and a small retirement account, plus federal student loans, so her disclosed net worth range has stayed in the tens of thousands of dollars.
What her disclosures show
Her first report, filed as a candidate on April 30, 2018, listed a Charles Schwab checking account of $15,001 to $50,000, a Schwab brokerage account, a 401(k) from her time at the National Hispanic Institute, and wages from a restaurant job. It also listed federal student loans of $15,001 to $50,000, taken out between 2007 and 2011.
Her latest report, an amended version of her 2025 report filed on August 7, 2026, looks much the same. It lists an Allied Bank savings account of $15,001 to $50,000, a Schwab checking account of $1,001 to $15,000, the same 401(k) and a brokerage account worth $1,000 or less. The student loans are still listed at $15,001 to $50,000, the same band as on every one of her reports since 2018.
Has her net worth changed since she took office?
By the numbers on her own reports, not much. The range on her 2018 candidate report was about −$33,000 to $65,000. On her 2025 report it is about −$33,000 to $66,000. In between, the range dipped as low as −$48,000 to $16,000 on her 2019 report.
Like every member of Congress, she does not have to report a home she lives in, cars or other personal belongings, or federal retirement savings such as the Thrift Savings Plan. So her real net worth could be higher than these forms show. Because the bands for small accounts are wide, even a few thousand dollars can move the range.
