TFT Gives Compelling Testimony to Tax Structure
Study Commission
. . . . . . . . July
31, 2003
 TFT board chair John Stewart (standing) introduced
and closed TFT's testimony before the Tax Structure Study Commission.
Other speakers included (from left to right) Dale Gray, executive director
of MANNA, Polly Marsh, a CPA and TFT's board treasurer, Brian Paddock,
an attorney and board member representing SOCM, and Brian Miller, TFT's
executive director.
The Commission was established in July 2002 at the close
of the tumultuous legislative session that gave us the nation's highest
sales tax. The Commission's purpose is to further study the state's
tax system and recommend long-term solutions. The Commission is scheduled
to report its findings in July 2004.
