A BILL FOR AN ACT
Relating to income tax reduction.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that Hawaii's state tax burden is the worst in the nation for low-income wage earners. The combined effects of the income tax and general excise tax results in the bottom twenty per cent of low-income residents spending a higher percentage, 12.2 per cent, of their $9,800 income for taxes than all other earners. This rate is almost twice the 6.3 per cent of taxes paid by people with an income of $1.4 million or above who are the top one per cent of the income earners. The cost of living in Hawaii is one hundred sixty-five per cent of the national average, while Hawaii has the lowest national adjusted-average income, $22,108.
The purpose of this Act is to decrease by twenty-five per cent the income tax rates for all but the top income earners. SECTION 2. Section 235-51, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (a) through (c) to read as follows:
"§235-51 Tax imposed on individuals; rates. (a) There is hereby imposed on the taxable income of (1) every taxpayer who files a joint return under section 235-93; and (2) every surviving spouse a tax determined in accordance with the following table:
