Negotiators eyeing auto insurance reserves to replace tech tax

Negotiators from the Maryland Senate and House of Delegates made slight progress on resolving their budget differences Monday, but the lawmakers did identify a new pot of cash they might tap to help fund the repeal of the computer services tax.

The Senate Budget and Taxation Committee also put off until today a work session on the tech tax repeal, apparently because leaders were coming up short of votes for a solution that includes a new income tax surcharge on millionaires.
