Boebert Campaign Said It Knows of No Past-Due Liens, But Records Show Candidate Owes Colorado $19K
The Denver Posts Justin Wingerter first reported in July that tax liens totaling about $20,000 have been filed against congressional candidate Lauren Boeberts restaurant, Shooters Grill, in the past four yearsand that the Boebert campaign said it is unaware of any past-due taxes or outstanding liens against her diner.
But documents from the Garfield County Clerk and Recorders online files show that, while a portion of Boeberts debts have indeed been paid, the Rifle Republican still owes about $19,000 for unemployment insurance, interest, and penalties.
The public record does not necessarily mean the liens are still outstanding, however. The state may not yet have posted release documents showing that the debts were paid.
Boeberts campaign didnt respond a request for receipts or other proof that the candidate has actually paid off the liens.
