The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most sources agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom released four years of tax returns for 2021-2024, resuming disclosure after not releasing annual returns after 2020. The filings show Newsom and Jennifer Siebel Newsom earned between $1.7 million and $2 million annually from 2022 through 2024, and paid about $500,000 a year in federal and state taxes. The governor’s office made more than 700 pages available for review. The returns also show nearly $200,000 for household staff in 2024, and the couple has earned at least $11 million since Newsom took office.
