Many recent candidates for high office, by contrast, report millions in income and assets from multiple sources on their forms.
Walz reported a $210,287 income from his job as governor of Minnesota from January 2023 through August of this year and a bank account with between $15,000 and $50,000 in cash.
But Walz does have a few retirement savings accounts.
In addition, Walz will be eligible for Social Security benefits and a pension as a former member of the US House of Representatives.
“They did (a) story that said he’s actually richer than his statement says, because he has — and I quote, like this is an evil thing — ‘a defined benefit pension plan.’ That is my wish for every American to have a defined benefit pension plan,” he said.
