Top 15 Wealthiest Senators
Who are the richest senators of the 110th congress? Names like Rockefeller and Clinton weren’t surprising but a few others were.
What was a little surprising is the fact that the top 4 wealthiest senators are Democrats. And I thought the Republicans were the “rich, white guys”.
We took the top 15 and listed their minimum and maximum net worth. We listed the Minimum Net Worth and a Maximum Net Worth because the disclosure forms that they are required to file don’t require exact amounts.
