Utah House Speaker Brad Wilson wants a tax cut before January

Utah House Republicans were told Wednesday to “stay tuned for big, big details” on tax reform, with House Speaker Brad Wilson, R-Kaysville, suggesting a draft reform proposal will be released next week following months of discussions — but no public votes — by a legislative tax force.

The speaker told his caucus members that the longer they wait to act, the longer it takes for Utah residents to benefit, and that he’d like to see an income tax cut in statute before January 1.

“We will see if we get a proposal that we can elevate in a special session by the end of the year,” Wilson said.
