Let Utah Families Keep More.
Kay believes hardworking Utahns should keep more of what they earn. That means lower taxes, responsible spending and practical policies that reduce the cost of living for Utah families.
More than $1.5 billion in cumulative tax relief delivered to Utah taxpayers over six consecutive years of tax cuts.
Lower Taxes.
More Freedom.
Utah has reduced taxes six years in a row, putting more money back into the hands of individuals, families, retirees and businesses.
Kay has played a direct role in that record, carrying major income-tax reductions through the Utah House and supporting continued tax relief for working Utahns.
Real Savings. Real Relief.
Tax relief matters most when families can feel the difference in their own budgets. Utah's consecutive income-tax reductions and targeted tax policies are designed to help families keep more of their money.
The Utah Taxpayers Association estimates the cumulative income-tax rate reductions save the average Utah family roughly $300 to $400 per year.
The 2026 Legislature reduced Utah's state income-tax rate from 4.50% to 4.45%.
Utah reduced the state motor-fuel tax by six cents per gallon for six months, providing about $40 million in statewide relief.
Helping Lead the Tax-Cut Effort
Kay has done more than vote for tax relief. He has carried major income-tax reductions through the Utah House.
S.B. 69 — Income Tax Rate Cut
Kay carried the legislation in the House that reduced Utah's income-tax rate from 4.65% to 4.55%, delivering approximately $167 million in tax relief.
H.B. 106 — Income Tax Revisions
Kay carried H.B. 106, reducing the rate from 4.55% to 4.50% and providing approximately $103 million in annual tax relief. The legislation also expanded the child tax credit and created an employer child-care tax credit.
Another Income Tax Cut
The Legislature continued the tax-cut streak, reducing the rate again from 4.50% to 4.45%. The change provides approximately $101 million in ongoing annual statewide tax relief.
Tackling Everyday Costs
Keeping Utah affordable requires more than one tax cut. Kay supports policies that address the costs families encounter every day.
Lower Fuel Costs
Utah reduced the motor-fuel tax by 15%, approximately six cents per gallon, while also working to strengthen Utah's long-term fuel supply and storage.
Help for Young Families
Utah expanded eligibility for the state child tax credit so more families with young children can qualify for relief.
Property Tax Transparency
Changes to Utah's Truth in Taxation process require local governments considering tax increases to give taxpayers clearer information and a more meaningful opportunity to weigh in.
Honest Prices at the Register
Utah strengthened consumer price transparency so shoppers can expect the price displayed on the shelf to be the price charged at checkout.
