Gov Justice Unveils Yet Another Personal Income Tax Reduction Plan, But Progress On Issue Remains Elusive

/ On Day 55 of the West Virginia Legislature’s 60-day session, Gov. Jim Justice gathered top lawmakers of both parties to try to hash out the differences between three very different plans to reduce the personal income tax. Instead, the governor offered up another version of his plan before lawmakers chimed in and consensus on the issue remained elusive. Billed as a way to urge lawmakers to agree on what has been, to date, a stalemate, the governor s summit began with Justice critiquing the plans put forth by the Republican-led House and Senate. “I do not agree with the House plan from the standpoint that it takes a long, long time,” Justice said of House Bill 3300, as passed by the lower chamber last month.
