tax reductions

Lower government levies

Tax reductions are decreases in the amount of taxes owed, achieved through lower rates, new deductions, or expanded credits.

Politicians campaign on tax reductions; economists debate whether they stimulate growth or starve public services.

The tax reductions benefited corporations more than working families.

Also called tax cuts.
