AFP-OH Applauds Ohio Senate Budget Plan That Moves State to Flat 2.75% Income Tax
Columbus, OH – Americans for Prosperity–Ohio (AFP-OH) applauds the Ohio Senate for answering the calls of hardworking Ohioans and advancing a state budget that moves Ohio to a flat 2.75% income tax. Senate President Rob McColley and Finance Committee Chairman Jerry Cirino unveiled their version of the state budget this afternoon, featuring this historic tax reform and a strong commitment to fiscal restraint. Their proposal spends $1.6 billion less than the version advanced by the House and a full $5.75 billion less than Governor DeWine’s original budget request.
AFP-OH State Director Donovan O’Neil released the following statement:
“Ohioans have been asking for real tax reform, and the Senate’s budget delivers. Moving to a 2.75% flat income tax not only gives relief to working families today—it also builds momentum toward a future where Ohioans keep even more of what they earn. This marks a major step forward in our march to a 0% income tax and makes Ohio the most competitive state in the region. We thank Senate leadership for their bold vision and for listening to the voices of taxpayers across the state.”
The proposed 2.75% flat tax would be the lowest income tax rate in the region, continuing Ohio’s trajectory toward meaningful tax relief and long-term economic growth.
