West Virginia MetroNews – Just before cutting a ribbon that said “taxes” and admiring a balloon drop, Gov. Jim Justice today said the state is on track for another automatic personal income tax cut of 3% to 4% — and the governor said he would call legislators in for a cut even beyond that.

“I want to call you back, and I want to challenge you to some way somehow try to do an additional 5 percent on the personal income tax,” Justice said, addressing lawmakers. “It’ll be tough, but there’s a way to do it, and all of us can work together and try to figure out how to do it and how to do it now.”
Justice said a special session to consider the additional tax cut would be in August or September. He said lawmakers also should consider policies bolstering child support at that time.
