Rep. Ilhan Omar blamed major accounting errors for suggesting she's a millionaire after a congressional financial disclosure gained Republicans' attention.

The Minnesota Democrat's disclosure filed last year showed her and her husband's estimated holdings were between $6 million and $30 million. But an amended filing shows that Ms. Omar and her husband, Tim Mynett, owned assets between $18,000 and $95,000, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The revised disclosure came after the Office of Congressional Conduct requested additional information earlier this year, according to The Journal.
