A legislative task force made little measurable headway in their effort to find consensus on tax reform Monday, facing a wave of overwhelmingly critical public comment and postponing a vote on recommendations despite the desire of Utah government leaders to hold a special session next month.
Task force members debated a series of potential tweaks to their draft legislation, aimed at providing overall tax cuts to a larger number of Utah taxpayers, while pressing for additional data, detail and clarification before moving forward on a policy shift.
“It just seems to me that we haven’t dug into the details of what’s being proposed,” said Keith Prescott.
