HR 1 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2024 Second Special Session

Creating new House Rule 95d, relating to requiring 5 year projected fiscal analysis of any tax cut or increase prior to consideration in the House

This bill proposes adding a new rule to the West Virginia House of Delegates that requires a five-year fiscal analysis for any tax cut or increase affecting state revenue. Before such tax legislation can be considered, the Speaker must refer it to the Committee on Finance, and the Tax Department must provide a projected impact report on the state budget for the next five years. The measure directly affects the legislative process by establishing a mandatory review step involving the Tax Department and the Finance Committee. It aims to ensure that the long-term budgetary consequences of tax changes are analyzed before the House debates them.
