Linda Lingle on Tax Reform

Republican Governor (HI)

Pushed for substantial and permanent tax relief

We must take action now to bring down the cost of living, and the quickest way to accomplish this is granting meaningful tax relief to Hawai‘i’s working families. That is why we have pushed for substantial and permanent tax relief every legislative session for the last four years. In the 2006 legislative session, we proposed four tax relief bills to put an additional $1,568 into the pockets of a typical family. The Legislature however only adopted modest tax cuts.
