Issue Position: Tax Reform

Issue Position

-Our tax system must be equitable and transparent. As property taxes rise, many of our retired residents and even working families in HD3 cannot remain in their homes. Therefore, I am committed to a property tax circuit breaker that would adjust property taxes based upon the ability to pay, with the deferred taxes paid once the property is sold.
-I am committed to making out-of-state corporations pay their fair share of taxes in Montana and this can be done by implementing a worldwide income reporting for multi-national corporations that also earn money in Montana.
-Fairness dictates that taxation should be based upon the ability to pay, which is achieved through graduated rates. When those in the top brackets aren't paying their fair share, then middle- and lower-income taxpayers end up paying more than their fair share. We need to ensure balance so that our working families take home enough to pay their bills.
