Tax revenue growth slowed in late 2011
State tax revenue growth across the country slowed in the last three months of 2011 to the lowest point since the economic recovery began, a think tank said Monday.
The Rockefeller Institute of Government said tax revenue increases hesitated at 2.7 percent.
When two states are factored out — one with a large increase and the other with a large decrease — the growth for the quarter came to 4.4 percent. (Method, Gannett)
