Georgia lawmakers fail to pay taxes
March 5, 2009 at 11:27 am by Thomas Wheatley in NewsNames of state legislators who failed to file or pay state or federal taxes — 22 at last count — are now rolling out. Chief among them: Senate Minority Leader Rob Brown of 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.
