Faced with almost $100,000 in federal tax liens, New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell on Friday blamed most of the debt on penalties and interest but declined to provide a further explanation of her financial troubles to the public, saying the issue is too complicated.

In brief remarks about the debt, Cantrell said she and her husband are working with a tax attorney to dispute many of the charges. She also said they had paid $60,000 toward the debt over the course of two years, though she did not say how much she currently owes or how much she had originally underpaid.

I believe I’ve given you enough information,” Cantrell said as she briefly answered questions following a news conference about road work in New Orleans East. “I don’t anticipate or expect to go into that level of detail especially when it’s so complicated and you don’t have the information.”


quote:

I will say to the people of this city they have a mayor who really gets it and is dealing with challenges and difficulties her own self, and at the same time doing what it takes to deal with the needs of people,” she said.


quote:

I pay taxes, every single time,” Cantrell said, noting that as a City Hall employee she has taxes taken out of her paycheck.

Yep. That's taken straight from the Democrat Party playbook. Whenever you closing in, it just gets too complicated for the little people to understand.

I'm shocked she didn't inform us she had all the money for the IRS stashed in the freezer of the worker lunchroom in the Hard Rock Hotel and just a soon as they demolish the hotel she will pay her debt should they be able to find the freezer.

We can’t decipher her 1040EZ but the people who voted for her are probably screaming for Trump’s taxes dealing with multinational corporations filed by teams of tax lawyers

LMAO, so before the election she is investigated for improper use of public money(or something like that)

Now she owes a large sum of taxes from years ago.

Damn just imagine the shite that hasn't been found out yet.

Trust me dummies, I’m doing a good job. This 100,000 I owe is all due to unfair penalties.

That'll teach her not to use Pay Day Loans to finance a new car.
