Foxboro



Attleboro area communities would lose almost $19 million in annual revenue within two years if voters approve Question 1 on the Nov. 4 ballot.

That estimate comes from the Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation, a non-partisan organization funded by business, which is fighting the referendum to eliminate the state's income tax by 2010.

The income tax accounts for 40 percent of the state's revenue. However, the organization says, the state spends a large portion of its $28 billion budget on non-discretionary items. These include such costly expenses as federal requirements for Medicaid and constitutionally-mandated education aid to local schools.
