Massachusetts voters are being asked this fall to vote on a proposed amendment to the state constitution to create an additional tax of 4% for income over $1 million, in addition to the existing 5% flat-rate income tax, and dedicate revenue to education and transportation purposes.
During this webinar, we will have a presentation in support of and opposing Question 1, which has been referred to as both the Fair Share and Millionaires' Tax.
