Ilhan Omar

As the Somali community in Minnesota comes under scrutiny for fraud allegations, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is being drawn into the fray. She has been in congress since 2018 and she and her husband who is a political consultant for her campaign have a net worth between $6 and $30 million. In 2019 her campaign paid her husbands consulting firm $2.8 million. The substantial increase in wealth is primarily attributed to her husband's ownership stakes in a venture capital firm and a winery.
