MI-SEN: El-Sayed releases tax return ahead of primary
LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed released his 2025 federal tax return Wednesday, following weeks of pressure from primary rival U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.).
The move comes amid a transparency fight that has consumed the final weeks of one of the country’s most closely watched Senate primaries. Stevens has repeatedly demanded that El-Sayed release his tax returns and had highlighted his request for a filing extension that would have pushed his personal financial disclosure past the Aug. 4 primary.
The winner of next month’s contest will face former Rep. Mike Rogers, a Republican, in November for the seat being vacated by retiring Democratic Sen. Gary Peters (D) of Bloomfield Township.
According to the return, a joint filing with his wife, Sarah Jukaku, El-Sayed’s reported total income for 2025 was $686,069 and adjusted gross income was $675,246. The couple reported $130,749 in wages, $262,299 in capital gains and $292,881 in additional income reported on Schedule 1.
