Tax increases reach 21 states as budgets sign into law
States sign budgets for the new fiscal year with $4.3 billion in new taxes and $2.3 billion in new fees, while $14 billion in proposed taxes and $2.4 billion in possible fees linger in 29 states. Bush era tax changes redirect $20 billion to states over two years, easing pressure but not avoiding program cuts.
