Issue Position: A Fair Tax System

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018
Issues: Taxes

Minnesotans are willing to pay taxes, so long as our taxes are fair and our money is used well. In a fair tax system, those who earn more pay a larger percentage of their income. Minnesotans who are doing well must pay their fair share of taxes so Minnesota can create services and conditions that give everyone opportunities to succeed.

Adding a "fourth tier" higher income tax rate for the wealthiest Minnesotans was a good start. The next step should be to remove outdated, unfair tax breaks that favor the wealthy and don't move our economy forward from Minnesota's tax code.
