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.

Where the money comes from

Congressional salaryPensions

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.

Summer Lee reported household assets minus debts of −$550K to −$265K, a midpoint of about −$408K, on her latest financial disclosure (2025 annual report, filed May 15, 2026).

Summer Lee has represented Pennsylvania's 12th congressional district since 2023. The district includes Pittsburgh, much of southern and eastern Allegheny County and part of western Westmoreland County. She is a member of the Democratic Party and became the first Black woman to represent Pennsylvania in Congress.

Before Congress she served in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives for the 34th district from 2019 to 2022, the first Black woman to represent Southwestern Pennsylvania in the state legislature.

What her 2025 disclosure shows

The report she filed on May 15, 2026 covers 2025. It lists no assets with a reportable value. Another one item is listed with no value or an undetermined value, such as a pension, so it is not counted.

On the debt side, the report lists two debts adding up to $265,000 to $550,000. The largest is a student Loan Debt with Advantage/Navient, in the $250K–$500K band. Subtracting debts the same way gives a range of −$550,000 to −$265,000, with a midpoint of about −$408,000.

How the range has changed

Using the same method for every year, the midpoint of her disclosed range went from about −$408,000 on her 2021 report to about −$408,000 on her 2025 report. The highest midpoint was about −$342,000, on the 2022 report. The chart shows five reports from 2021 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, Lee 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.
