AUSTIN — Nearly $5 billion of “nontax revenue” is ripe for plucking, a leading GOP senator said Tuesday.
But as soon as he started to outline it, Sen. Robert Duncan had to start ducking.
Fellow senators hurled thinly barbed criticisms at Duncan, R-Lubbock, for proposing faster tax collections for everything from alcohol to businesses and daring to suggest a higher tax on “little cigars,” which some said could put a small in-state manufacturer out of business.
