GOP Plan Seeks Tax Cut Phase In and Budget Balance
GOP leaders criticize senators for no clear plan and urge a July 1 budget vote. House proposal phases in tax cuts over eight years while preserving current agency budgets, redirects funds to fund taxes and boost property tax relief by 21 million, and freezes the car tax rebate at 408 million statewide. Local governments would lose car tax revenue as the tax is phased out. Rep. Bobby Harrell says cities and counties must find other revenue sources as car taxes fade.
