Ohio budget battle trims estate tax relief for elderly
Columbus reports mixed news on a state budget plan proposed by Governor Taft. The measure would end a key estate tax break for Ohio seniors and disabled, while House Republicans push to preserve some relief and cut $50 million from estate tax relief tracts. A school aid distribution formula revision remains under Senate Finance Committee review, and lawmakers face reporting gaps to districts as to state funding. Representative Taft provides addresses for official correspondence.
