Economic & Fiscal Policy

The Maryland Public Policy Institute supports policies that make Maryland more competitive with other states, including returning to tax rates of 2006 before the legislature approved increases in sales, corporate and income taxes. Those increases make Maryland the fifth worst business tax climate in the country according to the Tax Foundation. Lower-tax states experience higher population and economic growth than high tax states like California, New Jersey and Maryland. We also believe state government must be able to identify a funding source for programs before enacting them and that the state can maximize revenue by supporting a friendly business climate with clear rules and consistent regulation.
