Jack Hoogendyk on Tax Reform

Republican Senate challenger

Supports flat tax & FairTax

Q: Do you support or oppose the policy: "Make taxes more progressive"?

A: We should enact a flat or fair tax. Taxes are too high and penalize investment and job creation.

Lower corporate taxes; keep tax cuts; end death tax

I support making current tax cuts permanent. Taxes are too high.
Corporate tax rates need to be lowered to provide more incentive for corporations at home and abroad to invest in the United States.
I support the permanent elimination of the death tax.
