The Ohio 19
Monday, April 28th, 2008 By Mike MaurerCheers 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!!!
