A company once owned by Tim Mynett, the multimillionaire husband of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), was slapped with a federal tax lien after failing to pay more than $200,000 in taxes, according to records obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
The Internal Revenue Service filed the lien in Sonoma County, California, in January 2023, alleging that Mynett’s company, EStreetCo, failed to pay nearly $206,000 in income, Social Security, and Medicare taxes for the 2021 tax year.
The filing came seven months after the company dissolved in June 2022.
EStreetCo was launched in October 2020 by Mynett and his business partner, former Democratic National Committee adviser Will Hailer.
According to archived versions of its website, the firm provided advertising, design, and public relations services and employed at least 17 staff members.
In her 2021 congressional financial disclosure, Omar reported that EStreetCo was a “creative agency” and valued her husband’s stake at no more than $1,000. This was during the same period the IRS claims the company failed to pay its required taxes.
The lien does not involve Mynett’s earlier political consulting firm, E Street Group, which received $2.9 million from Omar’s campaign during the 2020 election cycle. No known tax liens have been filed against that business.

Although the lien remains listed as active in Sonoma County records, a spokesman for EStreetCo insisted the tax debt has been resolved. “The tax bill has been paid in full and a credit is due,” the spokesman told the Free Beacon.
He also provided IRS account transcripts dated September 3, 2025, showing the agency now owes the company a $3,042 tax credit and that no outstanding balance remains. The IRS declined to comment on the matter.
The tax controversy comes as Omar faces growing scrutiny over her rapidly increasing personal wealth.
A Free Beacon report earlier this year revealed her net worth climbed from no more than $163,000 in 2023 to as much as $30 million in 2024 — a jump of more than 3,500 percent.

Much of that wealth was tied to two other firms co-owned by Mynett and Hailer: California-based winery eStCru LLC and venture capital firm Rose Lake Capital. Rose Lake previously advertised its ability to structure “legislation” for clients before removing the claim from its website.
Omar’s office did not respond to requests for comment.
Mynett’s financial disclosures in 2023 valued his stake in both companies at no more than $51,000, with combined bank balances under $700.
But by the end of 2024, his holdings reportedly surged to roughly $30 million, following legal settlements with investors who had accused the pair of fraud.
