Cut Maryland's corporate tax rate to ZERO (from 8.25%) and help make Maryland's business climate competitive
Cut taxes for pass-through entities, S-Corps and LLCs, by 50%
Eliminate state inheritance and death taxes for businesses
Do not raise the minimum wage
Do not put unnecessary barriers on new workers by eliminating the need for expensive licenses, time-consuming educational and training requirements where feasible
