Description
Minnesota lawmakers just finished a historic legislative session that achieved something rarely seen in the state tax arena—a budget featuring both the biggest tax cut and the biggest tax hike in state history. The resulting tax overhaul measure includes $3 billion in tax relief from one-time refunds, tax credits, and a tax waiver on most Social Security income. But it also raises $1 billion through a tax on the earnings of foreign subsidiaries of multinational corporations and a new levy on individuals with investment income over $1 million.
The state's lawmakers also made headlines for first passing and then rescinding a plan to calculate corporations' state income taxes on the basis of their worldwide income. The controversial plan would have made Minnesota the only state to abandon “water’s edge” rules, which permit businesses to exclude foreign affiliates’ income when they file their state income tax returns.
On this episode of Talking Tax, Bloomberg Tax senior reporter Michael J. Bologna discusses this consequential legislative session with Rep. Aisha Gomez (D), chair of the House Taxes Committee. Gomez, a progressive in her third term, discusses the practical, political, and personal challenges she had to overcome in delivering the tax package.
