[Vision2020] tax update

[Shirley Ringo]

Visionaries:

This afternoon, the Idaho Senate defeated the bill that would raise the sales tax to 6.25%, and eliminate the .3% property tax for schools.  The vote was 15 for, 20 against.

As I write, it is ten minutes before three, Boise time.  The House will meet again at 4 PM.  It's not clear what action will be taken.  I would expect to move the $75,000 homeowners' exemption bill out on its own.  It has received favorable votes in both House and Senate, but the House needs to agree with Senate amendments.
