The new House leader lists no bank accounts, including checking or savings, on financial disclosure forms going back to 2016.
The Daily Beast reports that in financial disclosures dating back to 2016, the year he joined Congress, Johnson never reported having a savings or checking account in his name, his spouse’s name, or in the name of any of his children.
