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. We also leave out mortgages on homes the report does not list as assets, because the homes themselves are not counted either.

Compares the 2016 report with the 2025 report, using the same method for both. His first report in the online database covers 2016, before he took office in 2019, so the chart starts before his first day in 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.

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.

Dusty Johnson reported household assets minus debts of $5.88M to $12.9M, a midpoint of about $9.37M, on his latest financial disclosure (2025 annual report, filed July 29, 2026).

Dusty Johnson has represented South Dakota's at-large congressional district since 2019. A member of the Republican Party, he belongs to the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus.

He served as a South Dakota Public Utilities Commissioner from 2005 to 2011 and then as chief of staff to Governor Dennis Daugaard until 2014. Between his state service and Congress he was vice president of Vantage Point Solutions in Mitchell, South Dakota. He ran for governor of South Dakota in 2026 and placed third in the Republican primary.

What his 2025 disclosure shows

The report he filed on July 29, 2026 covers 2025. It lists 47 assets with a value, adding up to $6.1 million to $13 million. The largest are American Funds Fundamental Investors – A (joint, $500K–$1M); American Funds Gr Fnd of Amer A (joint, $500K–$1M) and American Funds New Perspective A (joint, $500K–$1M).

On the debt side, the report lists one debt, a cor Trust Bank with Mitchell, SD 12/10 Mortgage on commercial building, Mitchell, owed by the spouse, in the $100K–$250K band. Subtracting debts the same way gives a range of $5.9 million to $12.9 million, with a midpoint of about $9.4 million. It also lists a mortgage on a home the report does not list as an asset. As on all our House profiles, we leave that debt 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 his disclosed range went from about $2.9 million on his 2016 report to about $9.4 million on his 2025 report. The lowest was about $2.8 million, in 2018. The chart shows nine reports from 2016 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, Johnson does not have to report a home he lives in, cars and personal belongings, or federal retirement savings such as the Thrift Savings Plan, so his real net worth could be higher than these forms show.
