HELENA â The top 1 percent of Montana taxpaying households reaped about 25 percent of the total cuts from the 2017 federal income-tax cuts approved by congressional Republicans, a state Revenue Department of analysis shows.
The analysis, provided to MTN News, estimated that Montanaâs 487,000 taxpaying households in 2019 saw an overall reduction in federal taxes that year of $909 million, because of the federal cuts.
The average federal tax reduction per household was $1,866 â but, when the cuts are examined by income bracket, the analysis shows that benefits flowed disproportionately to top income-earners, who pay higher rates on their income and generally pay more taxes.
