Policy Matters Ohio: A Fair Share Tax Could Rebalance Ohio’s Tax Code

A fair share tax offers Ohio a better path forward. By requiring the state’s highest-income households to contribute in proportion to their ability to pay, it would restore balance to a tax system that has increasingly favored the wealthiest. Just as importantly, it would generate the revenue needed to make strategic investments that strengthen Ohio’s economy and improve quality of life for people across the state.
