By Bruce Crumley, Inc. (TNS) Business owners facing employee requests for higher pay have plenty of reasons why they can’t increase salaries over current levels, and a new survey suggests another one.

Faced with California’s $45 billion budget deficit, Sacramento lawmakers continue to grapple with how to cure the shortfall. It comes as no surprise that in late June, the state’s Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, in her role as acting governor, and Gov. Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bills 167 and 175. The bills’ passage resulted in suspending the net operating loss deduction for businesses with greater than $1 million in income and limiting business tax credit utilization, along with other changes.
