Experts Weigh In on Tax-Heavy State November Ballots

Overview


Stephen Kranz said that many 40 tax-related state ballot measures in the November 8 election are “really … specific to each state — the political and economic issues that are being discussed.” He cited as an example Oregon’s Measure 97, a bid by public unions to replace Oregon’s corporate minimum tax with a gross receipts tax, noting that it reflects long-time conflicts in the state and adding “I think it would be unlikely to see those same politics occurring in other states.”
