Federal tax reform proposal spurs state local funding debate
The piece outlines a President proposed plan to return about $5 billion in federal taxes to states, base funding on population and effort to keep local tax rates. A required split would send roughly half to local governments, leaving states to decide spending. Congressman William Scherle questions adequacy of federal funds amid deficits, urging a tax deduction approach as an alternative. The article blends policy discussion with local notices of birthdays and visits in Tabor and nearby towns.
