They don’t have a state income tax and the legislators have attempted to sneak one through in the past, resulting in hordes of angry Tennesseeans descending upon the capitol building, surrounding it while blowing their car and truck horns.

They’re voting on banning it, which would preclude such an end-run.

Voting on an amendment to deny the ability to tax income, unless changed by a future amendment.

We are making the constitution clearer in that there cannot be an income tax period.

Amendment #3 eliminates mayors from placing a payroll tax on a person's income and some strengthening of the TN Constitution on income taxes. TN IS AN INCOME TAX FREE STATE, Sales tax only and the HALLS Income tax, which you have to have a lot of $$ for that to hit you.
