Foundation

The Future of Iowa Foundation (which is the sister organization to the Iowa Taxpayers Association, focusing on research), along with the Tax Foundation, a nonpartisan tax policy research organization based in Washington, D.C., completed Iowa Tax Reform Options: Building a Tax System for the 21st Century. 

This publication is designed to give the reader a thorough evaluation of Iowa’s economy, detail the state’s existing tax structure and offer recommendations for reforming the tax code. It also provides excellent insight into the thoughts and perspectives of Iowans who regularly interact with Iowa’s tax system

The Iowa Taxpayers Association and The Future of Iowa Foundation believe this book will contribute to the tax conversation in Iowa, and will allow ITA committees to work with legislators to develop and advocate for broad-based tax reform. This comprehensive approach demonstrates the degree to which the reforms offered in this book, taken together, can enhance Iowa’s tax code and improve the state’s competitiveness. The presented menu of options will help ensure that the state builds a tax system for a diversified economy and positions itself as a destination for investment, entrepreneurs, and talented individuals in the years ahead.
