Gov. Asa Hutchinson said Wednesday that he's hoping for bipartisan support in the Legislature for his four major plans -- another income tax cut, an increase in the minimum pay for teachers, a government reorganization and a highway plan.
Talking with reporters in the governor's conference room at the Capitol, Hutchinson also discussed voter approval of casinos and changes in legislative seats.
A day after the general election, the Republican governor said GOP lawmakers holding a supermajority in the House -- at least three-fourths of the seats -- and almost having a supermajority in the Senate could help him pass tax-cut legislation that requires 75 percent approval.
"In terms of the next rounds of tax cuts, there is a couple different ways you can present the legislation," Hutchinson said.
