The governor’s tax proposal was passed by the House of Delegates last week and is now before the Senate, where legislative leadership has clashed with Justice over proposals to cut taxes for nearly two years. Senate Republican leaders say they’ll offer their own proposal.

Justice’s plan would cut the income tax rate by 30% this year and another 10% in each of the next two years.
