Updated: Chamber to report on R.I. income tax

PROVIDENCE -- Rhode Island's income tax is hurting the state's economic growth.

That's the conclusion of a report the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce is expected to release today at 3 p.m. in the House Lounge of the State House.

Chamber officials say they are making a change in the tax code a top priority.

At the General Assembly, legislation that would lower income taxes for Rhode Island’s richest residents is a major piece of the House leadership’s agenda for the year.
