Reports detail legislator wealth
By STEVE TETREAULT
STEPHENS WASHINGTON BUREAU
WASHINGTON -- Sen. Harry Reid sold Las Vegas property last year for a seven-figure gain, reinvesting the profits in stocks and municipal bonds.
...
They also show Reid adding to a hefty retirement fund while Ensign is socking away money for his three young children and Porter is still profiting from his earlier career as an insurance salesman.
...
While the latest reports, covering 2004, are scheduled to be released publicly by Congress on June 14, the Nevada lawmakers have made theirs available.
...
The reports list the approximate value of investments, income derived from them and transactions lawmakers completed during the year. Congress members also are required to report profits from speaking engagements and any free travel they accepted.
It is difficult to pinpoint exact values because lawmakers are allowed to categorize their holdings in broad ranges. For instance, Reid reported income from his property sale as between $1 million and $5 million.
The politicians also are not required to disclose the value of their homes or the income of their spouses. The figures also don't include their Capitol Hill salaries. Senators and House members are paid $162,100. Reid, the Senate minority leader, is paid $180,100.
Following are sketches of the Nevadans who filed reports:
REID:
Reid, 65, reported assets between $2.1 million and $5.5 million. His wealth includes land and mining claims in Searchlight, his hometown. His largest listed asset is 160 acres of land in Bullhead City, Ariz., valued at $500,000 to $1 million.
Reid's portfolio contains municipal and school bond investments of $520,000 to $1.2 million. He has put money into offerings from Clark County and Henderson as well as jurisdictions in Illinois, Wisconsin, Texas, Arizona, Oregon, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Utah, Alaska, Tennessee and Michigan.
Reid reported that he sold a piece of property and a 47 percent interest in an adjoining piece of land in January 2004 for a price that he reported as between $1 million and $5 million.
Clark County records indicate that Reid was involved in a sale completed in January 2004 of 4.73 acres on Patrick Lane just west of Fort Apache Road, south of Spring Valley. Records show the buyer was Patrick Lane LLC, whose manager was listed as Jay Brown, an attorney and longtime Reid friend and associate.
Records available Friday did not indicate sales prices. Reid declined through a spokeswoman to detail the transaction or verify the county information.
Reid's profits from the transaction were reinvested in a Wells Fargo money market fund and in bond offerings, his aide confirmed from his financial report.
Reid also bought stock in companies that included Best Buy, Emerson Electric, Anheuser Busch, Apache Corp., an oil and gas developer, and Boston Scientific, which manufactures medical devices.
During 2004, Reid sold stock in companies that included mortgage lender Freddie Mac, Intel Corp., Kohls Corp. and hospital operator HCA Inc.
Reid delivered a dozen speeches, at $2,000 apiece, in 2004. He donated the $24,000 to charity as required by Senate rules. He declined through a spokeswoman to identify the beneficiaries.
...
Rush just said that PMSNBC is 90 percent Foley today and is, essentially, ignoring the Reid story.
Has OL-BORE-MAN talked about Reid yet?
