Issue Position: A Smart Tax Base

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2019
Issues: Taxes

We must get our taxes under control. I voted to lower taxes more than 25 times in just one term.

I will continue to fight for us to lower taxes where possible.

I will continue to work to eliminate tax credits that aren't returning investment in the state.

I will not support an unreasonable gasoline tax.

I will work with former Jefferson Parish Assessor and Louisiana Tax Commission Chairman Lawrence Chehardy to make a compelling case for increasing the Homestead Exemption.

I will increase the income limit for the assessor age freeze or lift it entirely for a 65-year-old or older person's primary residence.

I will recommend a Tax Summit to analyze our tax structure and rewrite the Louisiana Tax Code.
