Public Citizen released an investigation finding numerous inconsistencies in Stephen Miller's financial disclosures filed with the White House. The report identified at least 10 of 27 stock sales in Miller's August 2025 transaction report that could not be reconciled with corresponding certificates of divestiture, with reported sale values appearing too low to account for listed share counts.
The investigation also found discrepancies involving Miller's wife, Katie Miller, and their three children's custodial accounts. The accounts held roughly $1.4 million in stocks certified for sale by the Office of Government Ethics, plus another $165,000 to $400,000 in other investments earlier that year. By the end of 2025, each account held only $1,000 to $15,000 in cash plus some Spotify stock, but Miller's disclosures do not show where the remaining money went.
Katie Miller's IRA held shares of MP Materials, Alphabet, Viking Therapeutics, Apple, Amazon and Arm in March 2025. None of these appear on Miller's annual report, and his transaction report lists no sales of Alphabet, Viking Therapeutics or Apple at all.
White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis responded that Miller complies with all ethics requirements and that the White House regularly provides ethics guidance to appointees. She did not address the specific discrepancies.
Lisa Gilbert, Public Citizen co-president, said: "Stephen Miller is neither above the law nor the rules, and conflict of interest standards are not optional." She noted the administration has used alleged errors in paperwork to justify criminal investigations against others, and called for equal application of rules.
Public Citizen called for a detailed explanation of the discrepancies, clarification of the White House ethics office's certification, and corrections to the financial disclosures. The organization provided its report to the Office of Government Ethics.
