Martin Says Tax Reforms Long Overdue
Congressman Dave Martin spoke at a public ceremony for the new water system in Chadron describing the House tax reform bill as long overdue and favorable. He forecast at least a five percent income tax cut for all and up to sixty four percent for the lowest brackets while noting revenue would be preserved by closing loopholes including absentee and hobby farming. He objected to a tax free municipal bonds provision, citing higher administration costs. The water project from Niobrara River sources costs 1.2 million dollars with an 18 mile pipeline and four wells.
