West Virginia tax plan faces growing pushback over sales hike
Gov. Jim Justice seeks to phase out the personal income tax starting 2022 by amending the state code. The plan would replace lost revenue with higher sales taxes and new levies on soft drinks beer tobacco and services. The Senate version raises the sales tax to 8.5 percent adds a 4.3 percent hotel tax and a 1 percent city Home Rule tax, potentially reaching 19.8 percent in some areas. Opposition centers on the substantial sale tax increases and broader tax shifts to cover the income tax cut.
