How Much Do the Top 1% in Each State Get from the Senate Tax Bill?
The states with the largest average tax cuts are states that have particularly unfair tax systems because they have no personal income tax.
The Senate tax bill that may be voted on later this week provides the greatest rewards to high-income people living in states that have low state and local taxes on the wealthy.
In these states, high-income people are not much affected by the cap on deductions for state and local taxes, which the Senate bill would make permanent.
Of the 10 states where the richest 1% of residents receive the largest average net tax cuts, 7 are states that have particularly unfair tax systems because they have no personal income tax.
