Can’t say that I’m shocked.
According to an article from the NY Post, She Guevara has some back taxes:
US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to raise taxes on the rich — just not pay her own.
The Democratic socialist congresswoman from The Bronx still hasn’t paid a 7-year-old tax bill leftover from a failed business venture.
AOC had founded Brook Avenue Press, a publishing house that sought designers, artists and writers from urban areas to help paint The Bronx in a positive way in children’s stories, in 2012.
As the Post previously reported, public records show the state dissolved the company in October 2016. The state can make such a move when a business fails to pay corporate taxes or file a return.
The state Tax Department then filed a warrant against her now-defunct business on July 6, 2017, over a $1,618.36 unpaid bill.
As of Friday, the tax warrant had still not been satisfied, and the outstanding balance had grown to $2,088.78, the department said.
New York can use all the taxes it can get right now. Do you suppose a member of Congress receiving a $170K yearly salary can pay this now or no?
