Tax Cuts in Utah – an Election Year Tactic?

Of course it is!

Today’s Desert News reports on Utah legislators pushing for a special session to give taxpayers a $70 million cut in personal income taxes.

Putting the obvious reasons for this for this push aside, however, while there does need to be examination of our current income tax structure, what is the rush to push tax reform through in special sessions?

I wish our legislators would spend more time looking at ways to increase services to our citizens first and then examine our tax structure to find ways that all people would benefit.
