The Ohio 19

Monday, April 28th, 2008 By Mike Maurer

Cheers to 19 state representatives who have proposed to eliminate altogether Ohio’s individual income tax, applicable also to trusts and estates.

No committee assignment yet and no formal analysis of the bill has been prepared by the Legislative Service Commission — a dollar says those things won’t happen — but credit is due to these 19 leaders. It’s the biggest free-market idea out of the Ohio General Assembly since vouchers.

The honor roll:

John Adams, R-Sidney

Thom Collier, R-Mount Vernon

Arlene Setzer, R-Vandalia

Jeff Wagner, R-Sycamore

Tom Brinkman, R-Cincinnati

Matt Dolan, R-Novelty

Matt Huffman, R-Lima

Diana Fessler, R-Bethel Township

James Zehringer, R-Mercer County

Bruce Goodwin, R-Defiance

Kevin Bacon, R-Minerva Park

Courtney Combs, R-Hamilton

William Batchelder, R-Medina

Jay Hottinger, R-Newark

Cliff Hite, R-Findlay

Joseph Uecker, R-Miami Township

Lynn Wachtmann, R-Napoleon

John Widowfield, R-Cuyahoga Falls

Bill Coley, R-Liberty Township

    To all 19 representatives,

    I shall certainly keep this in my drafts for future e-mailing and voting guides. Thank you all for stepping forward on this proposal.

    Sincerely,

    Bob Dillhoff

    If we want to keep people from leaving Ohio and get people to move to Ohio, eliminating Ohio’s individual income tax (as well as trusts and estates) is one way to do it!!!
