2024 MT Senate race: on Tax Reform


Tim Sheehy: High time to provide tax relief to military retirement pay

We are the greatest country in the world and our veterans should be treated with dignity, respect and a fair tax environment. They do not need charity or handouts, but they should not be penalized by an outdated tax code. Dozens of other states provide tax relief to military retirement pay, it's high time for Montana to catch up so we can retain this talented and motivated workforce. This tax cut will make Montana's business environment more competitive and enticing to veterans nationwide.

Tim Sheehy: Pledged not raise any income taxes

Taxes: Raise or lower taxes on corporations and wealthier individuals?

Tim Sheehy (R): Lower. Pledged not raise any income taxes. The "Trump tax cuts," that included the largest corporate cuts in US history and tax cuts for the wealthy, should "stay in place."

Jon Tester (D): Raise. Supported a 15% minimum corporate tax. Opposed the 2017 Trump tax bill that cut taxes for corporations and the wealthy. No "tax giveaway to the wealthy."
