White Against Income Tax Shape in Ohio House
Columbus Ohio November 12 pr The coming session of the general assembly faces a question of whether Governor elect White can keep the Democratic majority in the House and Senate aligned against an income tax. White vows to veto both income and sales tax bills, a stance that opponents say could doom the tax with a small Democratic majority. Urban factions fear a tax would drive industry out while rural factions favor a personal income tax as the sole revenue source for state needs. Farm groups back the tax plan, pushing for revenue to fund state services.
