Tax watchdog backs Hearnes tax hike package
A privately financed tax watchdog group endorsed Gov. Warren E Hearnes tax hike plan as necessary to raise new revenue. Edward Staples said Missouri needs 94 to 110 million dollars more, noting prior non recurring funds and surplus use. He warned building costs and school funding require fresh revenue and cited complex revenue growth trends and changes in tax processing affecting annual figures. Sen. Earl Blackwell questioned growth rates while analyst Robert Bauth explained timing distortions from federal tax changes and fund dissolutions. House hearings began with discussion on raising the standard deduction to 10 percent to ease returns processing.
