(The Center Square) — New Hampshire is known for its resistance to taxes, but the state's Republican leaders want to enshrine that dictum with a constitutional amendment to outlaw income taxes. 

A group of Republicans re-filed a proposal this week that would ask New Hampshire voters to permanently bar the state from setting income, sales or capital gains tax. The state currently has no income, sales, or capital gains tax, but backers say the move is needed to prevent future efforts to impose them.
