District 28 State Rep. Greg Heartsill believes that a proposed House tax cut bill and the fact the Revenue Estimating Committee has projected lower state revenue than previously thought are two separate topics.

Heartsill says putting the two together is misleading and while it makes for good political rhetoric, it misses the point on both.
Heartsill says with the slow economy, the lower revenue projection was not a surprise. He feels figuring out how to jump-start the economy should be the main focus of the Iowa Legislature and wonders if the proposed tax cut bill can help with that.
