There are many things on which the Ohio Chamber of Commerce and Gov. John Kasich agree. And they both say that the income tax cut in the governor’s budget is a good thing.

But Dan Navin with the chamber says the group doesn’t like the way the tax cut is being paid for. 

“The chamber was concerned that the proposed expansion of the sales tax to virtually all business and professional services and the proposed tax increase on one specific group of taxpayers – drillers of horizontal oil and gas wells – would result in an overall unhealthy shift in tax burden to Ohio employers.”

With one of his key backers opposing that key provision in his budget, Gov. Kasich is speaking out for it.
