~cas-3 Finally, the Tax Reform Act eliminated the deductibility of sales taxes and raised the sales tax cost to $1.00 for all State and local taxpayers, whether or not they are itemizers. This change also has the effect of causing State and local taxpayers to decrease the level of public spending in those States that levy sales taxes. Rough estimates of the effect of these three tax reform

TAX REFORM: ITS POTENTIAL EFFECT ON THE STATE AND LOCAL SECTOR < The Tax Reform Act of 1986 had two major themes. . The first theme was to swap rate reduction for broadened (more comprehensive) individual and corporate tax bases. , The second major theme was simplification, which evolved into the removal of low-income taxpayers from the individual income tax system and a substantial reduction

:-y—_......._v.-.==—4;e-....—.x=-—.-———a_:=— . ——-——~———4~ A — A cas-56 HARRY G. ENOCH DIRECTOR, DIVISION OF TECHNOLOGY KENTUCKY ENERGY CABINET We would like to propose the following as an alternative to acid rain control legislation: I First, we ask acceptance of the fact that the acid rain solutions must, of necessity, be long-range, or long-term solutions. The public should not be led to expect a painless, quick-fix to this problem. There simply isn't any. n I Saddling one region of the country with major utility emission re- .ductions is°not the answer: The solution, ultimately, will require major and expensive reductions of sulfur and nitrogen emissions in all regions of he country. Secondly, encourage vigorous enforcement of the current Clean Air Act. And, lastly, create a climate that encourages the development and commercial application of new technology. And two of the incentives to this end would be the Coal Technology Bill that is before the committee at this time. Another vehicle would be the Synthetic Fuels Corporation. JOHN T. JARVIS UNITED MINE WORKERS OF AMERICA The UMWA believes that the magnitude of job losses described herein is unacceptable, particularly in light of the current lack of scientific consensus on the issue. That is why the UMWA strongly supports legislation, which has been introduced in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate, to accelerate the ongoing study of the causes and effects of acid rain. We must have more data before control legislation is enacted.
