Senators Push Floor Debate On State Income Tax Plan
The revenue committee sent LB 612 to the floor for full debate proposing no state income tax with annual rate setting based on yearly state obligations. Sen Kenneth L Bowen of Red Cloud leads the measure, arguing it will raise taxpayer awareness of local and state government costs. Critics warn final passage remains uncertain. A second measure, Dove Bill, passed Agriculture Committee to add mourning dove to game birds with broad public hearings and support from sportsmen groups.
