MDs Dem Senate Hopeful Misses the Deadline to Pay the Pesky Back Taxes

Angela Alsobrooks, the Democratic nominee for Maryland's open Senate seat, missed the Oct. 31 deadline to pay her fair share of taxes on her former Washington, D.C., rental property, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.

Washington, D.C., authorities issued Alsobrooks a $47,580 bill in late September for taxes she should have paid on her former rental property dating back to 2004 had she not improperly claimed tax exemptions on the home meant only for senior citizens and primary residents of the district. The bill was due by the end of the day Thursday, but the D.C. Office of Tax and Revenue told the Free Beacon that Alsobrooks still owes nearly $30,000 of her fair share as of Friday morning.

"Our record indicates that a payment of $17,646.54 has been made. As of November 1, there is an outstanding balance of $29,934.02," said D.C. Office of Tax and Revenue spokeswoman Brianna Jordan, adding that interest on Alsobrooks’s bill will continue to accumulate so long as it remains unpaid.

Paying the remaining balance may be easier said than done for Alsobrooks, according to the embattled Democrat’s financial disclosure filed in August. Though Alsobrooks raked in a cozy $222,000 salary in 2023 for her service as county executive of Prince George’s County, she may lack the liquid assets necessary to pay her remaining taxes. Much of her net worth is tied up in her Upper Marlboro, Maryland, rental property, as well as her state-sponsored pension plan. In late August, before authorities slapped her with the $47,580 tax bill, Alsobrooks disclosed she holds anywhere between $16,000 and $65,000 across her checking and savings accounts.
