Corbett group pushes flat tax and clean water plan
Cedar Rapids Mayor Ron Corbett, leading the Engage Iowa think tank, outlined a flat income tax with a one-page return and a 1 cent sales tax increase to 7 cents, earmarked to fund clean water projects and reduce the income tax rate. The policy paper, authored by Dermot Hayes, argues Iowa’s top rate is high but actual rates are lower after credits.
