Changes

After Feinstein's unsuccessful Gubernatorial race in 1990, she was fined $190,000 for failure to properly report campaign contributions. In 2003, she was ranked the fifth wealthiest senator, with an estimated net worth of $26 million. By 2005 her net worth had increased up to $99 million. Her 347-page financial disclosure statement draws clear lines between her assets and those of her husband, with many of her assets in blind trusts. While on the MILCON subcommittee, Feinstein voted for appropriations worth billions of dollars to firms owned by her husband. In April of 2007 she resigned from the committee even thought her office denied any ethical conflict. The scandal has largely been ignored by the media.
