from the Union Leader we learned:
CONCORD – The House Ways and Means Committee yesterday voted to pass a raft of taxes that raise nearly $80 million on everything from pet shop licenses to capital gains.
With the Legislature struggling to close a projected $220 million budget gap, Ways and Means Chair Rep. Susan Almy, D-Lebanon, said the committee “is trying to bring forward as many options as are viable.”
Almy, a wealthy transplant from New York, donated $65,000 to liberal causes last year.
If Governor Lynch cannot rein in this renegade legislature, he doesn’t deserve a fourth term.
