Bill > HR102

This Resolution urges Hawaii's congressional delegation to introduce and support legislation that would repeal the $10,000 limitation on the deduction for state and local taxes, commonly known as the SALT cap, which was enacted by the federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The resolution explains that this cap, a significant change to federal tax law, has led to increased state deficits, reduced after-tax income for taxpayers, and disproportionately harmed Hawaii residents due to the state's higher cost of living and tax rates, without accounting for factors like inflation or marital status, and that this tax relief is desperately needed by working people.
