Members of Congress seem richer. 44% of Congress members are millionaires. Republican Representative Darrell Issa of California tops the list with an estimated wealth of 251 million U.S. dollars.
Vice President Joe Biden with 27,000 U.S. dollars came near the end of the list. However, he appeared to be better off than Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, who owes 42,000 U.S. dollars more than he owns.
