ITR’s Statement on Governor Reynolds Tax Reform Package
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WEST DES MOINES, Iowa (January 9, 2018) — Iowans for Tax Relief (ITR) is encouraged that Governor Kim Reynolds, as well as the leadership of both the House and Senate, are committed to reforming Iowa’s tax code and providing tax relief for hard-working Iowans. Lowering tax rates will create economic growth for Iowa’s economy by making our state more competitive.
ITR President Chris Ingstad said, “ITR believes federal deductibility serves as a protection for Iowa taxpayers. We have long supported federal deductibility, and believe a discussion about its merits is worth having and want to ensure all Iowans receive income tax relief in the process.”
ITR supports a full review of all existing tax credits, including the relevance, duration, intent, and effectiveness, to ensure they are serving Iowa taxpayers.
