Issue

Merry Christmas from the Legislature — Higher Taxes!

Details

Well, the State House is at it again trying to pass a Senate Budget version which will increase spending and require higher sales and income taxes!!   The House has revived the Senate’s $30.8 billion budget that everyone thought was dead! Is Harrisburg taking its cues from Washington, DC?

Here’s what the Commonwealth Foundation reports:

  • $691 million more for K-12 education — that’s $341 million more than the June budget!!
  • $79 million for higher education – a 6.5% increase
  • $421 million more for human services — a $3.7% increase
  • $103 million more for community and economic development ($94 million more than the June budget, including $85 million more in “walking around money” (WAMS) and discretionary grant programs) — a 50.5% increase
