California Gov. Gavin Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, release their tax returns covering recent years, according to reporting that reviews the filings. The New York Times reports that their taxable income exceeded $1 million per year from 2021 through 2024, with total taxable income in 2024 reported as $1.4 million. The Los Angeles Times says the couple’s annual income places them among the highest-income households in the United States.
Across the coverage, the key figures focus on the scale and consistency of their earnings over multiple years and the use of tax-return data to describe household income and taxable income. Both outlets base their accounts on the numbers disclosed in the filings, describing how much the couple earned since Newsom became governor and emphasizing that the amounts are at the high end compared with most U.S. households. The reporting centers on the income totals rather than changes in political positions or specific deductions, and it uses the released returns as the primary source.
