Happenings On the Hill Governors item veto shocks session
The governor vetoed the tax bill portion including the $5000 residential tax credit and the agriculture productivity provisions. Lawmakers say the measure would have delivered about 192 million in tax relief but fear recurring battles over assessments if the veto stands. The Malpractice Bill also passed with tough choices on pain and suffering limits. A legislator notes the loss of Representative Caffrey, who died last week, and the funeral delayed proceedings.
