Tom Steyer has not been convicted of any crime, nor has he faced indictments or charges for fraud, bribery, or corruption. His career has faced recurring scrutiny regarding his financial disclosures and investment history. In 2019, critics noted he omitted over 1,000 tax return attachments, concealing sources of income. Reports have highlighted his past investments in offshore private equity, fossil fuels, and private prisons, which he has since divested from. Regarding a 2020 campaign matter (MUR 7712), the FEC dismissed allegations that his presidential campaign accepted prohibited foreign national contributions. A 2026 state investigation is currently reviewing campaign payments to influencers.
