Budget Receives Final Approval

The Rhode Island Senate is giving final legislative approval to the state budget bill that takes effect July first.  The eight-point-six-billion-dollar budget was approved by the House last week, and now heads to Governor Gina Raimondo for her consideration.  The budget eliminates income taxes on Social Security benefits for most residents, and increases cigarette taxes by 25-cents a pack.  The budget also eliminates a tax on energy bills, and reduces the minimum corporate tax paid by small businesses.
