Georgia lawmakers fail to pay taxes

Posted by Thomas Wheatley on Thu, Mar 5, 2009 at 4:27 PM

Names of state legislators who failed to file or pay taxes — at least 22 of them — are now rolling out. Chief among them: state Senate Minority Leader Rob Brown, D-Macon.

The Macon Telegraph's Travis Fain has the news — and even makes Drudge:

Nearly 10 percent of Georgia state legislators are late filing or paying their state taxes, and state Sen. Robert Brown is apparently among them.

Brown, D-Macon, said Wednesday he’s not sure whether he actually owes the state or federal government any money because he hasn’t filed tax returns. He said he’s gotten extensions, but he declined to give more information or say for what years he received filing extensions.

More info at the Telegraph's site. Pay no attention to the raging commenters, a hallmark of every Drudge-linked article.
