Washington Post article, highlighting criticism from some House Democrats:

Key Va. Panel Votes to Cap Car Tax Relief

"Brian J. Moran of Alexandria, chairman of the House Democratic Caucus, said that more than a half-dozen Democratic delegates from Northern Virginia believe that freezing the car tax hurts their constituents and that the traditional formula for distributing the new tax revenue favors poor, rural parts of the state.

Several said they represent more than enough votes in the 100-member House to defeat the bill, raising the prospect that legislators from Warner's party might doom his legacy proposal."

The Senate passed their bill (with some minor revisions). Then sent it to the House who went into recess (to caucus, etc.). Apparently the vote in the Senate was something like 32-7.

I want to see that list.

"This is acceptable in my mind," said Del. Robert Hurt of Pittsylvania County, one of 17 breakaway Republicans. "I hope this will bring the compromise that I believe all Virginians want."

I guess this clueless elitist missed the Nov 02 elections where we Virginians sent the tax increases down to embarassing defeats.
