State Budget
Blue Ribbon Frankfort Meeting
Not a public input meeting, but everyone is welcome to attend!
KFTC members get the Blue Ribbon!
Last night's marathon Public Input meeting marked the end of this important stage of the Blue Ribbon Tax Commission's process for recommending state tax reforms. Although a few good folks had to leave before they could deliver their statement – the meeting ran more than an hour over time – the call for progressive tax reforms and adequate revenue for health, education, and environmental protection and clean energy was loud and clear. Sixteen of the speakers lined up were KFTC members, some coming as concerned Kentuckians and some wearing the hat of an ally organization.
Last stop for the Blue Ribbon Commission! Have you weighed in?
Tonight is the last Blue Ribbon Tax Reform Commission Public Input Meeting--the invitation for Kentuckians across the state to have their say in what kind of Kentucky we deserve, and how we can best pay for it fairly.
If you live in Central Kentucky, come on out!
Chair of Blue Ribbon Tax Commission expresses doubt
Even before the Blue Ribbon Tax Commission has finished its public hearings, Lieutenant Governor Jerry Abramson is expressing doubt that the process will result in major reforms to Kentucky's outdated tax code. He predicted that the commission is likely to recommend "minor tweaks."
