Taking Away the Opportunity to Roll the Sales Tax Back to 5% House #379
Vote Description
This was a vote in reference to amendment number two of H4640. The amendment called to roll back the state sales tax to 5% from 6.25% but a procedural maneuver was put forward to take away the opportunity to give this amendment a straight up or down vote. In this case, a yes vote was a vote against the opportunity to vote on the amendment.
