April 13, 2007 - Passing Meaningful Tax Relief Legislation
Click here to listen to this address.
"Last week I spoke with you about tax relief, and I would
like to share some additional thoughts on this important subject.
Remember this year your federal taxes must be filed by
Tuesday, April 17 and your state taxes by Friday,
April 20.
While you have a few more days to file, please use some of that time to
contact your state legislators about passing meaningful tax relief
legislation.
My comprehensive tax-relief package will assist those who
need it most, and directly benefit families who care for both young children
and aging parents. We also want to reinstate the excise tax
exemption on ethanol-based fuels which would help lower gas
prices.
I want to make sure more of your hard-earned dollars are returned to
you!
Call, email and submit testimony to your state legislators to make
your voice heard so we can help lower the cost of living in
Hawai`i."
