[TexasTowelie]

Tax relief proposals advanced Tuesday in North Dakota's House and Senate, adding more bills outside the main scope of the Legislature's special session.

Rep. Pat Heinert, R-Bismarck, asked the House to advance for introduction a bill mirroring Gov. Doug Burgum's proposal for two-year income tax relief of up to $500 per resident taxpayer using $207 million from a state budget surplus.

The House approved, 83-7.

"I am hopeful that people will utilize these funds to maybe save some money, maybe help someone else out with a donation, maybe purchase a needed item for their own household, or just maybe take their family out for a good meal," Heinert said.

‘Governor's spokesman Mike Nowatzki confirmed the bill is essentially the governor's proposal.
