Group of Democratic Lawmakers Argue for Tax Cuts

Democrat Dan Stewart of Columbus says the tax plan in place years ago that would give cuts to Ohioans now should be revisited as part of the budgeting process.

The democratic lawmakers say they realize Governor Strickland is not considering that option but they are hoping he will change his mind like he did on the proposal that allows slot machines at race tracks.

Legislative leaders are meeting this week to consider how to balance the next two year state budget. These lawmakers say they want to make sure revisiting the tax cuts are part of that conversation.
