Tax-writing committee chair calls Governor Vilsack "Arrogant"

June 17, 2004 By admin

The head of the tax-writing committee in the Iowa House is doing a verbal victory dance after the Iowa Supreme Court ruled democrat Governor Tom Vilsack did not have the authority to ax the GOP’s tax cuts out of a bill that passed the Legislature last year. Representative Jamie Van Fossen is a democrat from Davenport.Van Fossen says “this is the state of Iowa, not the Kingdom of Vilsack.” During a meeting at the statehouse today, Van Fossen called Vilsack “arrogant” and Van Fossen said he would insist that the Legislature again force Vilsack to consider tax cuts.
