Reply to comment by IncidentFar3094 in Why does MA need more tax money? by Comprehensive-Bus661

MA legislators are currently working on a bill to redistribute the refund on a progressive scale but I don’t think it passed, yet so not sure that’s correct.

Not allowed under the current constitution. Not allowed to tax the same class of income at different rates for different people, so the rebates have to happen proportionally based on how much each taxpayer actually paid.
