(The Center Square) —  Republican New Hampshire Gov. Kelly Ayotte is vowing to veto a Democratic-backed proposal, unveiled on Tuesday, that would set a new state income tax to fund the state's public schools and reduce local property taxes. 

The proposal, dubbed the "3-3 Tax Savings Plan," would charge a 3% flat income tax and a “$3.00 true statewide property tax" to drum up an estimated $1 billion a year for public schools.
