Gov. Jim Gibbons will veto the legislation increasing taxes Thursday at 5 p.m.
He is expected not only to veto the tax package in SB429 but the General Fund budget contained in the Appropriations Act.
AB562 lays out how some $3.88 billion in General Fund money would be spent over the biennium.
It was unclear whether he would also veto other pieces of the budget package such as AB563, the K-12 education bill which represents just under $2.8 billion in General Fund.
The tax bill was designed to generate an estimated $781 million over the biennium, primarily from two business tax increases and a sales tax hike. All those increases would sunset under terms of the legislation in two years.
The General Fund budget presented by Gibbons would have spent $6.1 billion. After a series of major changes by the Legislature, the total is $6.745 billion.
In addition, there are several other pieces of legislation on Gibbons' desk which contain tax and fee changes to fund the budget.
