Infamous "anti-tax crusader" Bill Sizemore is back with a recycled version of a ballot measure Oregon voters rejected in 2000 which would remove the $5,600 cap on the amount of federal taxes paid that Oregonians could deduct on their state income tax form. 97% of the tax cut would go to households with an annual income of $83,000 or more, and household incomes of $30,600 - $50,00 would see an annual tax break of $2. Meanwhile, between $1 and $2 billion would be drained from state schools and services in each biennium.
