California to avoid tax hike during 90 day wage freeze
California will dodge a state tax rise during the 90 day wage price freeze but will face new revenues soon after. Gov Reagan's adviser Verne Orr says the freeze will not measurably affect the treasury and that taxes will likely rise this year to balance the budget or fund schools and civil service pay. Orr notes personal income and sales taxes are the likely targets and sees no probability of a tax increase during the freeze.
