Depending on who wins the Republican primary in the hotly contested governor’s race, Arizona may see some major cuts, even the outright elimination, in income taxes.
Three Republican gubernatorial candidates — Secretary of State Ken Bennett, state Treasurer Doug Ducey and state Sen. Al Melvin — have pledged to phase out corporate and individual income tax rates. None say they would do so immediately, but would strive to eliminate the taxes by the time they leave office. Ducey said he wants to bring income tax rates “as close to zero as possible” with the goal of eliminating them altogether.
