Legislature Seeks Tax Bill To Bridge 6 Million Gap
Senate and House conferees have struggled for a week to reconcile a $2.5 billion spending plan with a $140 million tax package. Senators push for a tax bill that funds the measure, while voices like Sen. Bill Patton of Ganado urge more money, warning the balance is not enough to cover the revenue needs. A broader showdown looms as lawmakers consider liquor and franchise tax changes and potential sales tax debates next year.

Political tax plan failure and amendments in the Texas Senate
The Texas Senate defeated Wilson's tax-package after amendments trimmed it from about 151 million to 82 million. Debates centered on soft drink and liquor taxes, with Herring and Connally opposing higher levies. Advertising taxes for papers and media were voted down after initial support. The scene also shifts to legal proceedings and unrelated court summaries mentioning King’s murder case and witnesses.
