Since the earliest online report (2013)
Compares the 2013 report with the 2025 report, using the same method for both. She took office in 2011. The House's online database has her electronic reports from 2013 on, so we can't show her wealth when she first took office. 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
| Tapestry, Inc. (TPR) | $250K–$500K |
| Merrill Lynch IRA: American Growth Fund | $50K–$100K |
| Merrill Lynch IRA: American Investment Co. | $50K–$100K |
| Merrill Lynch IRA: Amer Funds Amcap | $15,001–$50,000 |
| Debt: Credit Card, Citibank | $15,001–$50,000 |
| Three mortgages on homes not listed as assets (left out of our totals) | $300K–$750K |

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.
Terri Sewell reported household assets minus debts of $385K to $1.09M, a midpoint of about $736K, on her latest financial disclosure (Amendment to 2025 annual report, filed September 25, 2026).
Terri Sewell has represented Alabama's 7th congressional district since 2011. The district includes most of the Black Belt and large parts of Birmingham and Tuscaloosa. She is a member of the Democratic Party and the first African American woman elected to Congress from Alabama.
Sewell grew up in Alabama and studied at Princeton, Oxford and Harvard Law School. Before entering politics she worked as a securities lawyer at Davis Polk & Wardwell and as a public finance lawyer at Maynard, Cooper & Gale, where she was the first Black woman to make partner. She took office before the first annual report shown on this page.
What her 2025 disclosure shows
The report she filed on September 25, 2026 covers 2025. It lists 19 assets with a value, adding up to $435,000 to $1.1 million. The largest are Tapestry, Inc. (TPR) ($250K–$500K); Merrill Lynch IRA: American Growth Fund ($50K–$100K) and Merrill Lynch IRA: American Investment Co. ($50K–$100K).
On the debt side, the report lists one debt, a credit Card with Citibank, in the $15,001–$50,000 band. Subtracting debts the same way gives a range of $385,000 to $1.1 million, with a midpoint of about $736,000. It also lists 3 mortgages on a home the report does not list as an asset. As on all our House profiles, we leave those debts out because the home's value is not counted either.
How the range has changed
Using the same method for every year, the midpoint of her disclosed range went from about $16,000 on her 2013 report to about $736,000 on her 2025 report. The chart shows 13 reports from 2013 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, Sewell 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.
