Massachusetts families are facing an affordability crisis. Inflation is felt from housing to health care while wages feel stuck. Don’t fall for any fear mongering on this issue, lowering the income tax means real relief for families who can keep more of what they earn to afford what they need most: rent and mortgages, food on their tables, gas in the tank, a sports fee paid, daycare bills handled, or a credit card balance lowered. 

Right now, people and businesses are fleeing the state at an alarming rate.The tax burden is universally felt and Massachusetts families need relief. It’s time to cut the income tax from 5% to 4% and keep our neighbors, graduates and retirees here, building strong schools and communities.  Unless we do something to address the affordability crisis, the Commonwealth stands to risk federal representation and funding after the 2030 census.

Reducing income taxes would deliver a powerful economic stimulus, creating jobs and growing locally owned small businesses. The increased consumer spending would boost revenues from sales, meals, and hotel taxes, strengthening communities and fueling the Massachusetts; economy.
