JACKSON ⢠Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann on Monday suggested a sweeping income tax elimination bill authored by House leaders faces long odds in the Senate, though he also refused to rule out the possibility that a heavily modified version could win approval.
Hosemann held up a dog-eared copy of the 317-page bill during an online forum hosted by Mississippi State Universityâs Stennis Institute, saying he was still wading through the billâs language himself after it cleared the House on an 85-34 vote last week.
He outlined several âunintended consequencesâ buried in the bill, which he said could impact farmers, teachers, electric utilities and nonprofits. He stressed the need for more experts to evaluate the proposalâs potential impact on Mississippiâs economy before it moves forward.
