Larry Hogan criticizes Angela Alsobrooks for tax breaks scandal


Maryland Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate, Angela Alsobrooks, has come under fire after a CNN report revealed that she may have taken advantage of tax breaks she did not qualify for. The report stated that Alsobrooks saved thousands of dollars in taxes on two properties she owned, one in Washington, D.C., and another in Maryland, by claiming a homestead tax exemption that only applies to a person’s primary residence.

Alsobrooks’ Republican opponent, former Governor Larry Hogan, expressed concerns over the allegations, stating that it was concerning for someone who talks about raising taxes on working people to not have paid her own taxes. Hogan criticized Alsobrooks for what he perceived as a double standard in her policies.

Alsobrooks’ campaign responded to the allegations, explaining that she was unaware of the tax credits attached to the properties and is working to resolve the issue with the District of Columbia and repay any credits received. The campaign also clarified that Alsobrooks ended up paying more in taxes due to the mishandling of the homestead tax credit.

The General Election for the U.S. Senate seat, soon to be vacated by retiring Senator Ben Cardin, will see a showdown between Alsobrooks and Hogan on November 5. Despite the controversy, both candidates are gearing up for the election, each highlighting their stance on taxes and their records in public service.
