Hall backs insurance premium tax shift in Oklahoma
Gov. David Hall endorsed a tax measure to switch how the insurance premium tax is collected. The plan would start with a 0.25 percent levy on Oklahoma insurers this year, rising by 0.25 percent annually to 2 percent by 1978, while foreign firms would see phased reductions beginning in 1975. Critics say the reform may yield little new revenue, and lawmakers said any new funds would not fuel next year's budget.
