House Debates Tax Proposals and Budget Borrowing
Culver says debate is thin and support for tax increases unclear in the House. Governor Wolf urges action as Senate proposes new drilling and higher utility taxes and borrowing at least 1.3 billion funded by tobacco settlement payments. Lawmakers cite 800 million in excess funds from 40 special funds to avoid borrowing, including the Public Transportation Fund. Nesbit notes no consensus yet as representatives craft a plan.
