Texas tax swap ends session with uncertain school funds
The 2006 Texas legislative session wrapped with a tax swap that reduces property taxes for poorer districts only temporarily while wealthier districts retain more local revenue. The plan raises a $1 cigarette tax and adds a $2,000 teacher pay raise, but critics say it leaves public school funding underfunded and may require districts to raise property taxes later. Editorial by The Baytown Sun’s David Bloom, representing the paper’s editorial board.

Tax restructuring and teacher pay hike in Texas
Texas lawmakers approve a landmark tax package aimed at cutting local property taxes by a third and replacing the franchise tax with a broader business tax. The plan, backed by Gov Perry and House Speaker Craddick, faces critiques from Democrats and tax-watchers who warn of a $25 billion hole and potential school funding gaps. The vote ends with mixed reviews and signals further battles when the Legislature reconvenes.
