Many of you may have heard the negative radio ad that is running on several stations in the 30th District about me. The ad is very misleading and completely false.

The ad states that I have been late paying my property taxes 15 times on my home and over 100 times on other properties. A quick phone call to the Gage County Treasurer’s office confirms that I have NOT been late and I have never paid interest charges on my taxes. Payments postmarked on or before April 30 and August 31 are considered timely. Because of the huge volume of tax receipts, payments are processed over the course of several days and the processing date is indicated. However, the payment of the taxes by the property owner is on time.
