Trump-hating Democrat, John Lewis didn’t pay property taxes on his nearly $1 million D.C. townhouse according to the sleuthing done by Got News:
Lewis was in the news recently for saying he doesn’t see President-elect Donald J. Trump as “a legitimate president” because of the #RussianHackers Democratic conspiracy theory.
Public records show he avoided paying property taxes on his DC townhouse at 219 3rd Street SE on Capitol Hill:
That house at 219 3rd Street SE was worth more than $810,000 in 2012 according to Nexis assessment records. It’s a nice fancy townhouse right next to Congress:
In 2010, legal action was threatened against Rep. John Lewis for his failure to pay property taxes, as documents exclusively obtained by GotNews show:
It’s unclear if Lewis still owns the house and is paying taxes for it.
As a long-time congressman, Lewis’ salary is at least $174,000 a year, which makes him richer than 92% of Americans:
Oh the irony of a tax-loving Democrat like John Lewis who is in the top income bracket yet still avoids paying his ‘fair share’ of taxes!
