State tax bill eyed as smaller than forecast
State finance chief Jim McGrew of the Texas Research League says the 1985 Legislature could produce about 95 million dollars annually in new revenue to cover higher education, teacher pay raises, and portions of agency budget increases. He cites a possible 625 million dollar biennial revenue for spending, including an 83.9 million dollar surplus, with potential no new taxes yielding limited general revenue for education and state departments. The discussion includes proposals from Gov. Connally’s education groups, impact on tuition, and commissions, plus DPS investigations and a Yarborough campaign aide’s disclosures.
