New York, Illinois, And California Lawmakers Propose Higher Taxes
The most recent state-to-state migration data shows that California, New York, and Illinois are experiencing population loss to red states due to factors such as high taxes, high housing costs, and crime. Lawmakers in blue states like New York and Illinois are proposing tax hikes, while red states like Georgia and Iowa are taking action to reduce taxes and improve their fiscal advantages. Governor Gavin Newsom of California has blocked some tax hikes, but voters will decide on a proposed income tax increase in November.
