Lower Taxes

Senator Hise helped pass the largest tax cut in North Carolina history in 2013 to provide much-needed tax relief to all western North Carolina families and make our region and state more attractive to job-creating businesses. Following decades of Democrat control, North Carolina had the highest taxes in the Southeast. Senator Hise supported a tax reform plan that simplified our state's 1930s Depression-era tax code, cut personal and corporate income tax rates, eliminated the death tax and ended dozens of loopholes for special interests.

Most importantly, these reforms will help create jobs -- they've already moved North Carolina from the bottom of national rankings to the 17th best business tax climate in America!
