BATON ROUGE, La. — Louisiana’s GOP-dominated legislature passed tax cuts on personal and corporate income on Friday in exchange for a statewide sales tax increase, giving Gov. Jeff Landry much of what he wanted after his original tax reform package ...

The Louisiana Legislature Friday approved the centerpiece of Gov. Jeff Landry’s tax package, a measure that will cut individual income taxes and offset most of the lost revenue by raising sales taxes. The Senate vote was 38-1, with only Sen. Royce Duplessis, D-New Orleans, voting no.

The Louisiana Legislature has passed a slew of bills to restructure the state’s tax system. The key changes are cuts to the individual and corporate income tax, a raise in the state sales tax among cuts to corporate income and eliminating the franchise tax.

Income taxes will drop, sales taxes will rise and a much-maligned tax on corporate assets will disappear under legislation approved by the state Legislature Friday that ends two weeks of debate on how best to refashion Louisiana’s tax system.
