## Resource

Montana Governor Greg Gianforte is pushing for a sweeping flat 4.7% income tax, claiming it will unleash economic growth by letting Montanans spend their own money — not government’s. While some Republican lawmakers are ready to back the plan, critics warn it risks slashing state revenue and disproportionately helping the wealthy, potentially jeopardizing schools and public safety. Gianforte counters that lower taxes fuel growth, which ultimately boosts revenues — and this could be his next big tax reform move. The upcoming legislative session will decide Montana’s future tax path. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
