Kansas Gov sounds alarm over IRS ruling 80-55
Gov. John Carlin warned Kansas taxpayers could lose millions if Revenue Procedure 80 55 stands. The ruling limits tax deductions on deposits pledged by banks with federal bonds, threatening the market for state and local municipal bonds financing over 1 billion dollars in projects. The governor urged IRS to reconsider, citing no consultation with government entities and potential higher costs. Local officials expect possible legal challenges and congressional pressure to override the ruling.
