Read this important viewpoint on Revenues from Rep. Matthew Patrick who recently introduced an amendment to the House budget that would have restored the 12% rate on unearned income (dividends and interest). PHENOM thanks him and the brave Representatives (Kocot, Malia,Provost, Scaccia, Sciortino, Story, Swan, Toomey) who voted in favor of this in the midst of the current wave of anti-tax hysteria that is harming public higher education and other important state services.
