Farm Bureau opposes Shivers tax plan for teacher pay raise
The Coke County Farm Bureau sent a letter to Senator Dorsey B. Hardeman and Representative A. J. Bishop opposing Governor Shivers plan to raise revenue for a teacher pay raise. It argues the compromise would raise ad valorem taxes with no local voter input and unfairly burden local districts while favoring state funding through natural resources taxes.
