Saturday capitol forum to address revenues, shortfalls

Rep. Shirley Ringo, D-Moscow, is inviting the public to a "Bipartisan Citizens Forum At the Statehouse, For Responsible Government," scheduled from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday in the Capitol Auditorium, in the lower level of the state capitol. The forum will include presentations on the state's fiscal situation and possible sales tax reforms, plus include public testimony from any interested citizens or groups. At the end of the forum, each attendee will be asked to sign a form on preferred  alternatives: Revenue enhancements to make up the state's funding shortfall, no tax increases, or other.
