“„Mr. Santorum, his wife, Karen, and their seven children live in a larger home in northern Virginia, but they have maintained the house in Penn Hills next to Mrs. Santorum’s parents. …
“„In 2001, the Penn Hills school district filed a lien against Mr. Santorum for $222.77 in unpaid taxes. The township did the same for $275.30 in 2003. Mr. Santorum paid off both liens within a year. …
The report notes that Santorum is expected to formally announce his presidential bid on June 6, and that the campaign has not responded to requests for comment.
