With Tax Cap Group Formed, Working Families Party Pushes Own Relief Plan

June
30

After business groups today started website to promote a property-tax cap, the Working Families Party announced its own site to promote tying taxes to income—instead of a cap.

The union-backed party launched its online tax-cap calculator to show that a circuit breaker as its called is a better solution than a cap.

“A unworkable, one size fits all cap would simply limit the amount that your property taxes could go up,” said Dan Cantor, Working Families Party executive director. “The Working Families Party plan for tax relief would give millions of homeowners an immediate tax cut the fair way, based on your family’s ability to pay.”

The calculator includes a petition calling for property tax relief through the circuit breaker model, and the party plans an advertising campaign around the calculator.
