The legislature must act responsibly and with foresight to avoid serious financial problems within the state." IN RESPONSE to recent federal policy changes. Rep. Bumingham said. The deficit financial policies of the federal government have created a serious economic and tax crisis. If the president is sincere about returning significant gov- ernmental responsibilities and if a back to the states federal tax cut of corresponding proportion will be allowed we are on the verge of a historic transfer of real power back to the people. Such a transfer of power will restore power to state legislatures. As a member of the legislature, Rep. Bumingham currently serves on the Education Standing Committee, the Taxation and Revenue Standing Committee, and the Public Education Appropriations KLM BURNINGHAM Committee. All of these are critical for Davis County. THE DOLLAR loss to Davis School District caused by the elimination of federal payments in lieu of taxes threatens financial chaos in our schools next fall," said Bumingham. We urgently need strong measures by the legislature to assure that the tax efforts of the various counties in Utah provide an equalized overall revenue per student a treatment that has long been given lip service in theory but has fallen short in ; practice. "My experience in the last session of the legislature emphasized the fact that the legislature has very limited time in which to complete many important tasks, commented Bumingham. THOSE legislators who understand the subleties and political process have a tremendous advantage.
