Gov. Paul LePage wants to align Maine's tax plan with the $1.5 trillion tax code rewrite that Republicans passed last year. 

Two weeks ago, the Maine Center for Economic Policy released an analysis on Gov. LePage’s tax bill, which confirmed that the people who stand to benefit the most from the $111 million tax cut are the state’s highest earners.

Much like the federal Tax Cuts and Job Act, which President Trump signed into law in December, Maine’s closely mirrored version — the Conformity and Family Tax Relief Act — focuses tax breaks on wealthy families and profitable businesses, benefiting from marketing that it will provide relief that every Mainer will greatly benefit from.
