Bill Summary

Taxes capital gains income at the same rate as ordinary income. Effective 7/1/3000. (HD1)

AI Summary

This bill aims to strengthen tax fairness for working families by taxing capital gains income at the same rate as ordinary income, effective July 1, 3000, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2023. The legislature finds that the current lower capital gains tax rate primarily benefits wealthy individuals, including non-residents who invest in real estate in Hawaii. The revenue generated from taxing capital gains at the same rate as ordinary income could be used to strengthen various government programs, such as tax credits for working families, emergency preparedness, public education, and affordable housing.
