Tax cut plan linked to school building aid in Ohio
Ohio Governor Voinovich touted a three year income tax cut totaling over 1.3 billion dollars and 718 million for schools. The Legislature earlier designated 200 million for school repairs and emergencies, with the remainder added to the rainy day fund and to pay outstanding bills. Democratic rival Mary Boyle criticized the tax approach amid a state budget surplus and a rejected sales tax increase.
