Assembly Deadlock Over Tax Measure Sparks Debate
Russell Olson the only Republican to cross party lines joined 44 Democrats in opposing the measure as two Republicans faced off in a split vote. Haase defended the GOP plan and warned of worse outcomes if it failed. Norman Anderson accused the GOP of excluding Democrats from drafting, while Pommerening called the substitute a true compromise despite broad Republican opposition to the tax hike. The proposal would raise 152 million in new taxes including a 3 percent sales tax with exemptions on food drugs gas and small purchases.
