Pro-Hogan super PAC targets Alsobrooks over report on tax breaks

A super PAC supportive of Republican Maryland Senate candidate Larry Hogan is airing a new ad targeting Democrat Angela Alsobrooks over a recent CNN report that she improperly received tax breaks on her properties.

“This economy has been hard on our wallets, but not on Angela Alsobrooks,” says a narrator in the 30-second ad , which is being launched by the pro-Hogan super PAC Maryland’s Future and was first shared with The Hill.

“CNN reports she dodged at least $16,000 in property taxes, illegally taking tax deductions she didn’t qualify for. She even took a benefit meant for low-income seniors,” the narrator adds.

“But Alsobrooks wants us to pay more, including higher Social Security taxes,” the narrator says, citing a questionnaire in which she answered “yes” to a question around whether she supported raising the Social Security payroll tax cap.

“Angela Alsobrooks: higher taxes for you, illegal tax breaks for her,” the ad’s narrator concludes.

A source with Maryland’s Future noted the group has placed $19 million in ad reservations through Oct. 28.
