Edmondson Proposes Boosting Sales Tax to Fund Biennium
Edmondson pitches raising the state sales tax from 2 to 3 percent to finance the next biennium. He estimates the move would yield about $53 million over the next two fiscal years. House Speaker J. D. McCarty calls the speech hard hitting and courageous. Mixed reaction follows with calls for a clear decision and debate on economy versus tax increase. Senator Leon Field says more economy could negate a tax rise, noting $300 million in new revenue this session. Other supporters argue the increase should have passed earlier.
