What Would You Do With $100? Locals Weigh In On Proposed Tax Refunds … Gov. David Ige wants to take advantage of a budget surplus to give $100 each to Hawaii taxpayers and their dependents.
Hawaii’s taxpayers may get some money back this year. During the State address in January, Gov. David Ige proposed a bill to roll out $100 tax refunds for every taxpayer and their dependents.
The cost of Senate Bill 3100 and its companion, House Bill 2132, totals an estimated $110 million. That’s a drop in the bucket when looking at the amount of money lawmakers have to spend this year. And that’s the point: the idea is why not put a little cash back into the pockets of taxpayers this year?
