Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm quietly acknowledged in a letter Friday that she retained ownership of individual stocks after testifying to Congress that she sold those shares.

Granholm acknowledged she hadn't disclosed those shares in her two prior Public Financial Disclosure Reports and had mistakenly believed her family's divestiture of Ford was complete in early 2021. The Ford stock she and her husband held in their retirement accounts had been sold off on March 22, 2021, she said.

"My spouse and I have double-checked our financial assets, and there are no other reportable assets that were omitted from my financial disclosure report," she concluded. In response to the letter, Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee Ranking Member John Barrasso, R-Wyo., criticized Granholm.
