Proponents of an Arizona ballot initiative that would raise taxes on the wealthy to fund education aren’t worried about by a recent court ruling in Massachusetts that struck down a proposed “millionaire’s tax.”
“We feel very good about our initiative and that it’s in good standing and that it will be on the ballot in November,” David Lujan, treasurer of Arizona’s Invest in Education initiative, told KTAR News 92.3 FM on Tuesday.
KTAR legal expert Monica Lindstrom, however, said the Massachusetts case could be cited by opponents to the Arizona ballot measure.
“It is possible there will be legal challenges to the Invest in Ed initiative based on the ruling in the Massachusetts court,” Lindstrom said.
