California panel approves six year phase-out of inventory tax
The Senate Finance Committee approved SB443 to phase out business inventory tax over six years to improve California's business climate. Sen Jerome Smith argued the measure would attract firms and jobs from Nevada and Arizona, while Sen Nicholas Petris questioned the $31 billion revenue loss and urged cost sharing with local governments.
