State Senate backs Symington tax cut package amid budget talk
The Arizona Senate approved a 122 million dollar package led by a 100.7 million dollar state income tax cut and homeowner and business tax breaks. The plan, labeled the Middle Income Tax Relief Act of 1994, would cut all brackets with an average 21 dollar annual savings and freeze the homeowners rebate at 35 percent of the district tax rate. It now awaits House action in a possible special session to address the budget. Senator Peter Goudinoff opposed, arguing renters should get a tax credit restored.
