Doug Howgate, president of the Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation, said regardless of the final plan there is a sense of urgency for Beacon Hill to move ahead on a tax-relief package, with census data showing the Bay State has lost more than 110,000 residents to other states in the past three years.

“From workforce shortages to the high costs of living and doing business, the threats facing the future of the commonwealth are real,” Howgate said. “We need to act with urgency to make it easier for people and businesses to stay or relocate here by advancing policies like meaningful, permanent tax relief.”
