Anti tax break bills win Senate panel approval in California
Gov Brown backed measures speeded through the Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee. One bill would raise taxes $25 million next year on about 6,000 wealthiest California taxpayers via preference income such as capital gains. A second measure would allow a simple majority for tax increases on businesses, matching individuals. Both faces further scrutiny with supporters claiming reform, opponents warning higher costs.

The measure passed the Assembly Rules Committee 35 to 1 and moves to the Ways and Means panel. opposition came from Democrat Ken MacDonald.
