[edhopper]

3. $21,000 Reimburse for campaign travel...... $20,000 state liens foe arrears unemp tax due

$20,000 Shooter's Restaurant state taxes owed lien:

The liens, filed by the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment, indicate that Shooters Grill was delinquent on UI premiums dating back to its opening in 2013. By early 2020, Boebert’s restaurant owed the state a total of $19,552.86, including interest and penalties.

On Feb. 13, 2020, three of the liens, totaling $553.50, were satisfied and released, records show. The remaining five liens, totaling $18,999.36, were satisfied on Oct. 22, 2020, according to Garfield County records.



$21,000 Campaign travel:

Boebert’s campaign finances came under scrutiny this week when The Denver Post reported on reimbursements she made to herself, first cited by Colorado Pols, to cover certain travel costs when she was a candidate. Her campaign finance disclosures to the Federal Election Commission indicate she claimed “mileage” reimbursements of $1,059.62, reported on March 31, and $21,199.52, reported on Nov. 11. A nonpartisan ethics watchdog group, Accountable.US, submitted a formal request to the Office of Congressional Ethics on Thursday asking for an investigation into what it called “exorbitant” mileage disbursements to Boebert from her campaign.

4. Nothing we think we know is not known by the FEC.

In this case, local media were first to report it to us, but I imagine narrowed eyes and raised eyebrows at her FEC filings came first. Their job is to scrutinize, and these are eye-narrowing numbers, after all.
