DEM GOVERNORS TO SUE TRUMP ADMIN. OVER TAX PLAN

Democratic governors to sue Trump administration over tax plan

By Sally Persons - The Washington Times - Friday, January 26, 2018

Democratic governors in three blue states announced Friday that they’re planning to sue President Trump over the tax plan passed late last year for the elimination of the state and local tax deduction.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York said the bill was a “fundamental violation of states’ rights” in a conference call, according to USA Today.

Govs. Dannel Malloy of Connecticut and Phil Murphy of New Jersey, both of who plan to join Mr. Cuomo as a “coalition,” were also on the call.

“I believe it is illegal,” Mr. Malloy said. “It is why we are standing up and saying this can’t happen.”

The governors said their states already give back enough tax revenue and that they’re still deciding how to proceed with their lawsuit.

My comments: States under LEFTIST Rule, want the ability to Tax their people to Death. Ironically even after they do this they are going Bankrupt. The New Federal Tax Plan would not allow the Rich in those States to deduct their State and Local Taxes, which means that many will move to States with less Onerous Taxes. Rather than reducing State and Local Taxes, the LEFTIST States want to fight the Federal Government.
