Recession squeezes states in '92, forces budget cuts, tax hikes

Article Abstract:

Findings of the 27th '50 Legislative Climates' survey showed that states are introducing new incentive and financing programs, educational reform programs and environmental laws to attract businesses. Despite pervasive economic development budget cuts and tax increases, many states avoided large tax hikes and enterpise zones designated in financially stricken areas to stimulate economic investment and job creation. States continued to increase funding for education and worker training programs, and some states implemented more stringent regulations on clean air than those imposed by the federal government.
