Maui Event: Will ‘Trump tax’ trounce Hawaii?

From Grassroot Institute of Hawaii

This is the first year of paying taxes under the new federal tax code pushed through Congress by President Donald Trump, and many of us have questions about how we will be affected, both as individuals and as a state.

For some answers to those questions, please join the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii on Maui, Thursday, Mar. 29, for a lively discussion on “How the ‘Trump Tax’ affects Hawaii.”

The luncheon event at the Maui Country Club in Paia will run from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and feature guest speaker Tom Yamachika, president of the Tax Foundation of Hawaii, along with Keli‘i Akina, Ph.D., president of the Grassroot Institute of Hawaii, as moderator.

Yamachika has said that Hawaii’s Legislature could make things easier or harder on Hawaii taxpayers, depending on how it reacts to the federal tax changes.

He’ll review some of the changes in the new federal tax code, and some of the state tax changes that our legislators now are considering.

Akina will talk about how lower Hawaii taxes could help make our islands more competitive economically, and perhaps inspire local families to move back to the islands.

Please join us for this important discussion. The admission is $10 and includes light pupus and sandwiches. For more information, please call (808) 591-9193.
