SUMMARY:Jefferson City - Modernizing Missouri's Tax Policy: The Path to Eliminating the Income Tax
DESCRIPTION:In his State of the State Address\, Governor Kehoe asked: “Should Missouri begin a phased elimination of the individual income tax\, with full repeal within the next five years?” He argued that doing so would help Missouri compete with states that do not levy an income tax and strengthen long-term economic growth. \nYou’re invited to an exclusive event featuring Senator Curtis Trent\, Representative Bishop Davidson\, and Show-Me Institute’s Elias Tsapelas. They will examine Missouri’s current tax structure and explore proposals under consideration to begin phasing out the state income tax. \nKey questions include: \n\nWhat steps would Missouri need to take to eliminate the individual income tax?\nHow will taxpayers be impacted?\nWould eliminating the income tax boost economic growth?\nWhat changes to the state budget would be required?\n\nSenator Trent\, Representative Davidson\, and Elias Tsapelas will address these questions and more\, with time for audience Q&A. \nThis complimentary event is open to anyone interested in policies shaping Missouri’s future. Please feel free to share with friends and colleagues. \n  \nREGISTER HERE\n  \nMonday\, March 30\nMadison’s Cafe\n216 Madison Street\nJefferson City\, MO 65101\nDoors open: 5:30 p.m.\nDiscussion and Q&A: 6:30—7:30 p.m.\nCOMPLIMENTARY (includes dinner and beverages)\n\nAdvance registration is required.
