State Rep-
Otto Amen, R-
today responded to
Evans' proposed
budget for the 1975-77

Amen made the
after Governor
unveiled his budget for
two years during a
televisionbroadcast
proposed
general fund budget
L $4.3-billion and amounts
increase of $1.2 billion
general fund expend-
itures for the current (1973-75)
biennium.
Governor Evans proposes to
partially fund the increase by
imposing a one per cent hike in
the state sales tax, taking it
from 4.5 per cent to 5.5 per
cent. The tax boost on retail
sales would be accompanied by
an elimination of the sales tax
on food.
The Governor also asked for
an 18 per cent average
increase in the state's B&O
taxes, from the present .044
per cent on manufacturing to
.052 per cent and from one per
,q
cent on services to 1.18 per
cent.
"I am unalterably opposed
to any increase in the state's
B&O taxes," Representative
Amen said. "Rather than
increasing this unfair tax, the
state should be working to
reduce or completely elim-
inate it."
According to Governor
Evans, the B&O tax increase
would bring an estimated
additional $94-million to the
state's coffers.
Rep. Amen expressed the
concern that the Governor's
proposed expenditures in the
area of human resources might
be too extravagant at the
present time• Governor Evans
has proposed a 23.1 per cent
increase for new human
resource programs over the
current biennium.
"It will be the Legislature's
responsibility to take a long,
hard look at our social and
public assistance programs to
determine whether cuts can be
made there before burdening
taxpayers with additional
costs for new programs and
services," Representative
Amen said.
