With this... everyone in North Dakota gets lower taxes...

Governor John Hoeven signs what's being called "historic" tax relief into law...

Lawmakers passed the $400 million dollar property and income tax relief package Wednesday.

Hoeven says this is the first time the state has reduced ALL tax rates.

$295 million will reduce your property taxes.

$90 million will reduce your income taxes and $10 million will lower corporate income taxes.

The tax cuts will benefit all taxpayers homeowners, renters, businesses, farmers and ranchers...

(Cook) "We're going to send a message to the hardworking people of ND who do their job and keep the economy running on all 8 cylinders. But we're also sending a message to friends and neighbors in other states that if you're getting tired of government that continues to burden you with higher taxes, then maybe North Dakota is a great place to come work, live and raise a family."


The tax relief package makes North Dakota's income tax rates one of the lowest in the nation.
