Assembly Keeps Pledge in No Tax Increase Budget
North Carolina lawmakers kept to campaign vows by passing an $8 billion biennial state budget with no tax increase. Governor Hunt's solar and insulation tax incentives were approved while proposals to raise cigarette taxes, luxury car taxes, and manufacturing inventory relief were defeated or postponed. Sen. McNeill Smith's tax reform plan, aimed at easing taxes for households earning $5,000 to $15,000, stalled in the Senate Finance Committee.
