Plan To Boost Sales Tax Clears Preliminary Steps
The Republican plan to raise the sales tax to fund a 243 million budget cleared preliminary Senate steps with a 22-12 vote in favor, two Republicans joining Democrats in opposition. The House approved 73-62, but both chambers fell short of the two thirds needed for emergency enactment. The bill advances to engrossment, with a key enactment vote likely later the week.
