Ensuring that Funds Appropriated are in Addition to and Not In Lieu of Funds Already Appropriated Senate #67
Vote Description
This vote is on amendment #1 to H.86, A Proposal for a Constitutional Amendment changing MA's flat income tax to a graduated income tax, by issuing an 80% tax increase on those making over $1 million annually. Since this proposal claims to raise taxes in order to fund education and transportation specifically, this amendment would guarantee the money generated would be in addition to regular funding and not instead of.
Mass Fiscal Explanation
Mass Fiscal supports a yes vote on this amendment to ensure this new tax would not simply be a new money grab, but actually fund what it states it will fund.
