How to read this: members of Congress report each asset and debt in a value band (for example, $1,001 to $15,000), not an exact amount. We add up the low ends and the high ends, then subtract debts the same way, to get the widest possible range. The midpoint is simply the middle of that range, not a measured value. The forms do not include a home the official lives in (unless it earns rent), cars and personal belongings, or federal retirement savings such as the Thrift Savings Plan, so true net worth can be higher.

Maria Elvira Salazar reported household assets minus debts of $1.1M to $3.1M, a midpoint of about $2.1M, on her latest financial disclosure (2025 annual report, filed August 13, 2026).

María Elvira Salazar has represented Florida's 27th congressional district since 2021 and is a Republican assistant whip. She lost the 2018 race for the seat to Donna Shalala, won their 2020 rematch and was reelected in 2022 and 2024.

Before politics she was a journalist for three decades at the Spanish-language network Telemundo, after working as a news anchor for Miami-based WSBS TV, and she also worked for CNN Español and Univision.

What her 2025 disclosure shows

The report she filed on August 13, 2026 covers 2025. It lists 53 assets with a value, adding up to $1.1 million to $3.1 million. The largest are Merrill IRA 2: Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) ($100K–$250K); Merrill Lynch Non-Retirement Investment Account: Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (QQQ) ($100K–$250K) and Merrill Lynch Non-Retirement Investment Account: Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) ($100K–$250K). Another seven items are listed with no value or an undetermined value, such as a pension, so they are not counted.

The report lists no debts that we count, so the range of $1.1 million to $3.1 million comes from the assets alone, with a midpoint of about $2.1 million.

How the range has changed

Using the same method for every year, the midpoint of her disclosed range went from about −$961,000 on her 2019 report to about $2.1 million on her 2025 report. The highest midpoint was about $19.5 million, on the 2023 report. The chart shows seven reports from 2019 to 2025, each added up the same way, and nothing is filled in between them.

These are ranges built from the value bands on each form, not exact values. They move with market prices, property values, new or paid-off debts and the bands a filer picks, and the forms do not say which of these caused a change. Like every member of Congress, Salazar does not have to report a home she lives in, cars and personal belongings, or federal retirement savings such as the Thrift Savings Plan, so her real net worth could be higher than these forms show.
