Губернатор Вермонта заявил о выдаче налоговых льгот на 190 млн долларов

Gov. Scott highlights $190M in tax refunds MONTPELIER, Vt. (WCAX) - Gov. Phil Scott is touting a broad tax break package passed last year, stating that the reforms are putting more money back into Vermonters’ pockets. The tax package, passed by lawmakers last year, established tax breaks specifically for seniors, low-income workers, veterans and families with children. Following its implementation, the Vermont Department of Taxes reported a banner year for refunds, with 240,000 Vermonters receiving a total of $190 million in refunds. Scott credited the passage of the tax reform package to the 2024 elections, which he said broke up the Democratic supermajority. The governor announced plans to push for additional tax breaks for Vermonters next year. “Here’s the bottom line; we need to keep pushing forward with practical solutions that deliver real results for Vermonters, and that’s what I intend to do,” said Scott, R-Vermont. However, some Democrats have voiced opposition to the current approach. Scott’s challenger, Democrat Amanda Janoo, along with other members of her party, have called instead for tax increases on top earners and second-home owners, arguing that doing so would be fairer for working Vermonters.
