Here’s How You Can Contact Area House Members on Tax Issues
The debate could heat up today in Baton Rouge as some tax bills have made it out of the House Ways & Means. The committee voted 10-7 to support a bill that would limit tax breaks for middle- and upper-income people who itemize deductions. Another measure that made it out of Ways and Means would keep .25 cents of a the so called "temporary" sales tax on the books. One plan would keep that on the rolls permanently, but Shreveport Representative won support for an amendment to end that quarter of a penny in the middle of 2021.
