JT i i .a Friday, September 18, 1987/The Jewish Floridian of Tampa Page 13-A Republicans Join Drive To Repeal Services Tax By DAN MOORE After meeting with Gover- nor Bob Martinez and Republican leaders in the Florida Legislature, Rep. Dave Thomas (R-Englewood) said recently he is even more determined to "flat-out repeal" the state Services Tax. But while Gov. Martinez has been pursuing the idea of a statewide referendum on the Services Tax, Thomas said he continues to encourage repeal of the statute. "I met with the governor for about an hour at his home, and with the Republican legislators and Republican policy makers," said Thomas. Street Fighters.

Thomas indicated he will co- sponsor a bill in the Florida House to repeal the tax. Thomas, like the other three members of the Sarasota County legislative delegation, voted against the governor's Services Tax when it reached the floor of the legislature last spring. All three are Republicans. Not only that, Thomas also signed a People's Tax Revolt petition recently, asking that Martinez's Services Tax be taken to referendum in November of 1988 if it isn't repealed. Earlier, the legislator from Englewood observed, "It's the function of the legislature to determine the taxing policy of the State of Florida.

We don't need a three-fifths majority of both houses to repeal the tax, which is what a constitutional amendment would require." Thomas says he would ask the governor to convene a single special session to con- sider the Services Tax issue as well as the problem of access to emergency medical care. "It's terribly irresponsible for the leaders of the house and the senate and the ex- ecutive branch to call a special session to deal exclusively with a taxing issue when we have residents of Florida not being able to get emergency medical care," Thomas said.
