Deb Haaland on Corporations

 

 


A society where all get an equal shot starts with tax reform

I believe in a fair society, where hardworking New Mexicans all have an equal shot to reach their full potential, and where corporations, millionaires, and billionaires all pay their fair share in taxes. We need a financial transaction tax along with a complete repeal and replacement of the GOP tax scam, and the reinstatement of a estate tax. We need to return taxes for the wealthy and corporations to post-WWII levels and also ensure that we tax wealth generation, not just wage-labor income.

Create an environment that is conducive to startups

We can use the resources we have here to stimulate small business and create an environment that is conducive to startups. Through innovative programs like technology transfers we can harness the talents of our state and create a positive environment for local business ventures. Increasing minimum wage would give families the increase in income so badly needed by everyday New Mexicans. This income would go directly back into our LOCAL economy and stimulate our state's stagnant job market.

PVS:Lower corporate taxes don't promote economic growth.

Haaland opposes the PVS survey question on corporate tax cuts

Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Economy: Do you support lowering corporate taxes as a means of promoting economic growth?' PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
