Colorado Tax Mobility Study Details Proposed Graduated Income Tax
What happened
The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities released a study analyzing tax mobility within Colorado. The report discusses Amendment 87, which would replace Colorado’s flat 4.4% income tax with a graduated system. Under this proposed system, the lowest earners would pay 3.7% and those earning over $1 million per year would pay 8.4%.

Why it matters
Amendment 87 is expected to raise revenue for the state. However, the proposal would constitute a tax cut for 97% of individuals and 95% of businesses. Conversely, taxes would increase significantly for the wealthiest individuals and the largest businesses.
Bills are currently being considered in Colorado regarding tax changes, involving legislative action and policy organizations.
