Prove to me liberals PAY tax.

Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton (D). Washington DC congressional rep in perpetuity.

From 1981-82, Norton served as a fellow at the Urban Institute. The following year, she was hired as a law professor at Georgetown University, a post she has held ever since.

In 1990 the District of Columbia’s non-voting Delegate to the U.S. House of Representatives, Walter Fauntroy, resigned to run (unsuccessfully) for city mayor. Norton narrowly won the Democratic primary race to replace Fauntroy, and then won the Delegate seat in the general election by a wide margin. She has been re-elected every two years since then, always by wide margins.

During Norton’s 1990 political campaign, it came to light that she and her husband had paid no D.C. income taxes since 1981.

This story “accidentally” broke through the MSM/propaganda front . Even if the Left is not paying taxes at this point, I’d bet somebody is preparing each a “return”

I don’t know the particulars of the District of Columbia; I know that in NY and NJ property taxes are high in areas that vote strongly Dem, while they are lower in Repub areas (”the sticks”).
