The Week Ahead

On Friday, the House Appropriations Committee approved a balanced budget for consideration by the full House of Delegates. Last week we blogged about state leaders' new transportation financing plan and the latest revenue estimates for Maryland, and hosted a guest blog about unaccompanied homeless youth. MBTPI also opposed a bill eliminating the state corporate income tax, supported (with amendments) a host of other reforms to the corporate income tax, and supported expanding the refundable state earned income tax credit. All testimony can be found on our 2013 session page.

For the week of March 11th to March 17th:

• Hearings continue in both chambers on the capital budget. The House is also expected to send the operating budget to the Senate next week. Check the budget hearing calendar for more information.
