West Virginia considers tax cut amid improving state finances
Acting Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin proposed a 26 million tax cut tied to a stronger budget outlook. The plan frees 17.7 million for pension funding, 47 million for a one time teacher and worker pay boost, and 78 million to supplement the budget while avoiding new taxes or entitlements. WV joins a minority of states with stable revenues as the National Conference of State Legislatures notes widespread deficits elsewhere.
