Legislature Resumes Funds Bills Debate in Vermont
In Montpelier the Vermont Legislature returns to the State House to tackle money bills. The Senate will resume the general appropriations bill, with cuts totaling about 1.1 million in a 70 million plus measure. The House will consider withdrawing from a 3 percent sales tax plan and a companion personal property tax repeal, while the sales tax proposal faces veto risk but support from groups like Farm Bureau and Associated Industries of Vermont. The Ways & Means Committee may bring a rooms and meals tax increase. Key issues include the Rutland Railway bill and a new school aid formula, with a June 21 adjournment debated.
