The New Jersey Legislature, on July 25, 2012, passed a fiscal year 2013 $31.7 billion state budget that includes many of the provisions proposed by Gov. Chris Christie (TAXDAY, 2012/02/23, S.21)) but excludes a 10% cut in gross (personal) income tax rates to be phased in over three years. Instead, the bill places $183 million for a tax cut in escrow until January 2013, which would be used for property tax relief pending revenue growth in the state.
