The Hill's 2011 50 Wealthiest in Congress

Berkley, who is running for a Nevada Senate seat in 2012, saw her wealth climb by more than $1 million last year.

The rise in fortune for the seven-term House Democrat can be attributed to her assets increasing in value. A John Hancock retirement for her husband, Lawrence Lehrner, rose in value from more than $565,000 in 2009 to more than $693,000 in 2010. Much of Berkley’s wealth comes from her spouse, who also owns RRT, a Las Vegas dialysis services company that is worth at least $1 million.

Berkley’s liabilities remained much the same in 2010 as they had been in 2009, totaling more than $1.3 million. Some of those debts included several Nevada home mortgages, worth at least $100,000 each.
