Arkansas cities seek local taxes to ease budget strain
Little Rock attorney says Arkansas cities have no real relief from state budget turnbacks as lawmakers debate HB 586. The bill would allow local governments to levy income taxes on individuals and corporations with voter approval, require state collection, and restrict other taxes. Gill warns results depend on local voter support and notes current service cuts amid fiscal strain.

A Butts County Superior Court granted a writ of habeas corpus delaying the execution of Samuel Gibson III who was to die in Georgia's electric chair. A future hearing will determine next steps as the U S Supreme Court denied overturning the convictions of Gibson and two other inmates whose death sentences remain under review.
