Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has been cleared of any wrongdoing associated to allegations of improper financial disclosures.
The Office of Congressional Conduct board voted 5-1 to recommend that the House Ethics Committee dismiss the allegation, The Wall Street Journal reported. “The Board recommends that the committee dismiss the above allegation concerning Rep. Omar because there is not substantial reason to believe that Rep. Omar reported false or incomplete information in her financial disclosures,” the report said.
Omar’s spokeswoman, Jacklyn Rogers, said in a statement, “This vote clearly underscores that the congresswoman did nothing wrong, and attempts by the far right to manufacture controversy and distract from the facts are pathetic and nothing more than a desperate distraction from their own failures.”

Issues stem back to Omar’s 2024 financial disclosure, which reported that she and her husband, Tim Mynett, held between $6 million and $30 million in assets, American Faith previously reported. A revised 2025 filing shows their shared assets valued at a maximum of $125,000. Mynett’s ownership stakes in his winery and venture capital advisory firm, previously valued at $1 million to $5 million and $5 million to $25 million respectively, were both listed at $0.
When the original disclosures surfaced, Omar’s office told Fox News Digital the filing was “inaccurate” and “incomplete,” saying it had mistakenly listed the total equity of Mynett’s businesses rather than his personal ownership share, and failed to account for liabilities.
Omar has also separately been probed for immigration fraud. During a May press briefing, a reporter asked Vance if he anticipates “an indictment against her,” or an “indictment related to” immigration fraud.
Vance replied, “You read the things about Ilhan Omar and about who she married and whether she didn’t marry this person or that person. It certainly seems like something fishy is there, but everybody’s entitled to equal justice under the laws. So we’re going to investigate it. We’re going to take a look at it. If we think that there’s a crime, we’re going to prosecute that crime, and that’s something the Department of Justice is looking at right now.”
