Truth in Taxation

How can policymakers make Utah’s tax systems more accountable to citizens and to taxpayers?  How can society establish reasonable and appropriate limits on lawmakers’ taxing power?

One purpose of the Center for Limited Government is to help develop principle-based policies that address these questions.  Responsible citizens also must grapple with these concerns if ordered liberty and economic prosperity are to be protected.  Fortunately, in Utah a part of the answer to these questions is a process called “Truth in Taxation,” which was incorporated into the state’s property tax system in 1985.
