@langstonwertzjr Why not offer the teachers an instant rebate and then pass legislation to raise salary compensation? The checks could go out in months as opposed to waiting to file a tax return.
@langstonwertzjr Example: A seasoned teacher makes $60k. Their standard deduction is $12,750 (taxable base $47,500). 2026 tax rate is 3.99%. This would give this teacher an extra $1,885.
Our teachers deserve considerably more.
@langstonwertzjr Teachers deserve more money now and more money during retirement. The no income taxes would only help teachers some now but would ignore their future.
