Mike Mazzei’s Plan to Eliminate Oklahoma Income Tax in 6 Years

My plan will not cut core services.

I’m Mike Mazzei, Oklahoma‘s next Governor.

To grow jobs and prosperity, we must become a no-income tax state. Tennessee’s economy the last ten years grew 58% more than ours.

We just lost the headquarters of Devon & Expand Energy to Texas. Why?

Texas and Tennessee are both no-income tax states, and we are not. Oklahoma needs to get on board or get left behind.

Every candidate in this race says the income tax needs to go — but I am the only one with a real plan to make it happen.

We can eliminate Oklahoma’s income tax in 6 years.

That process will start in the first year of the Mazzei administration.

Step one is reducing the income tax from 4.5-percent to 3-percent.

We will do that by getting rid of absurd tax deductions, exemptions, and corporate welfare.

Step two: Slash most of the more than 200 exemptions from sales taxes that have grown like a cancer over the decades.

Here’s a perfect example — for some reason,

People Magazine is exempt from Oklahoma sales tax.

Can anyone justify that??

Step three: A statewide vote to adopt the Tennessee model, tying taxes to consumer spending.

It is far better to tax activity than to tax labor.

That is why the no-income tax states have far greater economic growth than we do.

To launch a wave of growth and prosperity in Oklahoma, I need your vote on June 16th!

I’m Mike Mazzei, Oklahoma’s next Governor.
