| 47 | 47 | | PART I SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the virus known as SARS-CoV-2 causes a disease named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which spread globally and was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. Upon reaching Hawaii's shores, the COVID‑19 outbreak disrupted the local economy, resulting in a budget shortfall that was estimated to exceed two billion dollars as of December of 2020. The legislature additionally finds that it is necessary to generate revenue to allow the State to meet its strategic goals, avoid furloughs and layoffs for state workers, and prevent disruptions to essential government services. While the current governor proposed furloughing state workers to manufacture approximately $300,000,000 in savings beginning in January of 2021, the university of Hawaii economic research organization has found that every $1 in state salary reductions results in a $1.50 decrease in overall economic activity. Accordingly, the purpose of this Act is to preserve essential services and prevent employment reductions by generating revenue for the State by: (1) Increasing the personal income tax rate and implementing a rate recapture mechanism that phases out lower tax brackets for high earners; (2) Increasing the tax on capital gains; (3) Increasing the corporate income tax and establishing a single corporate income tax rate; (4) Temporarily repealing certain general excise tax exemptions; and (5) Increasing conveyance taxes for the sale of properties valued at $1,000,000 or greater. PART II SECTION 2. Section 235-51, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsections (a) through (c) to read as follows: "(a) There is hereby imposed on the taxable income of every: (1) Taxpayer who files a joint return under section 235-93; and (2) Surviving spouse, a tax determined in accordance with the following table: In the case of any taxable year beginning after December 31, 2001: If the taxable income is: The tax shall be: Not over $4,000 1.40% of taxable income Over $4,000 but $56.00 plus 3.20% of not over $8,000 excess over $4,000 Over $8,000 but $184.00 plus 5.50% of not over $16,000 excess over $8,000 Over $16,000 but $624.00 plus 6.40% of not over $24,000 excess over $16,000 Over $24,000 but $1,136.00 plus 6.80% of not over $32,000 excess over $24,000 Over $32,000 but $1,680.00 plus 7.20% of not over $40,000 excess over $32,000 Over $40,000 but $2,256.00 plus 7.60% of not over $60,000 excess over $40,000 Over $60,000 but $3,776.00 plus 7.90% of not over $80,000 excess over $60,000 Over $80,000 $5,356.00 plus 8.25% of excess over $80,000.

| 51 | 51 | | SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the virus known as SARS-CoV-2 causes a disease named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which spread globally and was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. Upon reaching Hawaii's shores, the COVID‑19 outbreak disrupted the local economy, resulting in a budget shortfall that was estimated to exceed two billion dollars as of December of 2020. |
|---|
| 52 | 52 | | |
|---|
| 53 | 53 | | The legislature additionally finds that it is necessary to generate revenue to allow the State to meet its strategic goals, avoid furloughs and layoffs for state workers, and prevent disruptions to essential government services. While the current governor proposed furloughing state workers to manufacture approximately $300,000,000 in savings beginning in January of 2021, the university of Hawaii economic research organization has found that every $1 in state salary reductions results in a $1.50 decrease in overall economic activity. |
|---|
| 54 | 54 | | |
|---|
| 55 | 55 | | Accordingly, the purpose of this Act is to preserve essential services and prevent employment reductions by generating revenue for the State by: |
|---|
| 56 | 56 | | |
|---|
| 57 | 57 | | (1) Increasing the personal income tax rate and implementing a rate recapture mechanism that phases out lower tax brackets for high earners; |
|---|
| 58 | 58 | | |
|---|
| 59 | 59 | | (2) Increasing the tax on capital gains; |
|---|
| 60 | 60 | | |
|---|
| 61 | 61 | | (3) Increasing the corporate income tax and establishing a single corporate income tax rate; |
|---|
| 62 | 62 | | |
|---|
| 63 | 63 | | (4) Temporarily repealing certain general excise tax exemptions; and |
|---|
| 64 | 64 | | |
|---|
| 65 | 65 | | (5) Increasing conveyance taxes for the sale of properties valued at $1,000,000 or greater. |
