Gov. Brown praised a $7.1 billion tax relief proposal approved by a special committee while withholding promise to sign in current form. The plan shifts $2.5 billion in new taxes over five years to provide $7.1 billion in relief, mostly through homeowners rebates averaging $225 and renters $113, financed by ending the business inventory tax and raising bank and corporate taxes. He warned that budget surplus uncertainties and a $4.1 billion school finance bill may force cuts, and emphasized tradeoffs to avoid a net tax increase in two to three years.
