Miller Says Revenue Growth Shows Overtaxation
State Rep. Ken Miller, Edmond Republican and vice chair of the House Appropriations & Budget Committee, issued the following statement today regarding the announcement of new revenue figures earlier in the day by the Office of State Finance:
“The pro-growth policies we’ve implemented in the Legislature over the past few years continue to have a positive impact. This year, per the Office of State Finance’s figures, the state’s revenue growth has totaled $224 million, when you figure revenue growth plus what we’ll deposit in the state’s rainy day fund. That means taxpayers have been overcharged. We made a commitment to Oklahoma's hard-working families to bring them tax relief, and we need to keep that promise.”
