“It is disappointing that a small group of members on the House Ways and Means Committee would block a tax cut for 90 percent of individual tax filers in Louisiana, but refused to ask the 80 percent of corporations that pay absolutely nothing in state income taxes to pay their fair share. That is a severe case of misplaced priorities.”
