In Virginia, a unanimous senate vote puts LVT on the Governors desk. Meanwhile, Kentucky also joins the momentum as other states continue on toward LVT enablement.
Earlier this week, the Virginia Senate unanimously passed HB 282, which allows four more cities to voluntarily adopt a split-rate land value tax. After Governor Spanberger signs the bill into law (which passed with veto-proof majorities in both chambers), the cities of Charlottesville, Falls Church, Fredericksburg, and Newport News will obtain the legal authority to tax land at a higher rate than buildings, should they so wish.
There is major news in a number of states, cities and on policies. Read the rest here: https://progressandpoverty.substack.com/p/boom-unanimous-vote-puts-land-value.
