“Political friction” over Republican’s office address
The Austin Chronicle is now reporting on the IRS complaint filed against the Greater Round Rock Charitable Foundation (GRRCF) for a possible violation of its non-profit status:
Political friction is growing over the role played by a Williamson County’s chamber of commerce in the House District 52 race between Republican Bryan Daniel and Democrat Diana Maldonado, and it’s all to do with Daniel’s address.
Eye on Williamson originally reported on this story August 12.
The GRRCF has been quite successful at raising funds, building up more than $1 million in assests; and to their credit has been modest in their office accommodations. According to the Williamson County Appraisal District, the building at 206 East Main has only 704 square feet. If the building’s frontage on Main Street is any indication, Daniel is a prominent tenant. Lacking separate entrances is an indication that this property was not built to be sub-let. The arrangement appears as cozy as taking on a boarder in a one-bedroom apartment.

Another example of the Republican party consumed with a sense of entitlement and immunity from the law.
Not to mention that this is a really stupid thing to do.
