Stacey Abrams’ Nonprofit Slapped With Its Seventh Tax Lien

A nonprofit founded by Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams was slapped with three different tax liens over the past year, bringing the organization’s known total to seven.

Third Sector Development, a nonprofit started by Abrams that focuses on registering black voters, was hit with three separate tax liens in the past year for failing to pay state unemployment tax, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Tuesday. The three tax liens, filed by Georgia state regulators, total roughly $3,500.

This isn’t the first time state regulators have targeted Abrams’ organization. The Georgia Department of Labor issued four tax liens worth $13,000 against Third Sector Development between 2014 and 2016, also citing unpaid employment contributions.

Abrams has blamed third-party clerical errors for all the issues.

Maybe her cousin shouldn't be her accountant.

"Abrams has struggled greatly with personal finances throughout her life. She has admitted to owing more than $200,000 in credit card debt, student loans and IRS back taxes. She has cited family obligations and a misunderstanding of how credit cards worked as reason for her financial situation.

“I did not understand that those magical slivers of plastic that I was getting in, in college, a $100 purchase was going to cost me like $3,000 over the next seven years, and that, if I didn’t pay the bill every month, it was going on some report that was going to follow me even after I had a great job,” Abrams explained during the 2018 election."

It's hard to believe that people voted to put this person in charge of their tax money. Or maybe they're just as ignorant.

And, 10:26, it's really amazing that the Hypocrats were stupid enough to showcase her in their response to Mr. Trump's State of the Union message.

Because she's a black woman? Is that why they did it? Who knows.

Imagine her as a governor.
