Losing Talent and Treasure: Uncompetitive Tax Regime Drives Upper-Income Exodus

Joe Selvaggi talks with Pioneer Institute’s Economic Research Associate Aidan Enright about his new paper “Debunking Migration Myths.” With this research, Aidan examines the link between Massachusetts’ tax regime and the outflow of high earners to states with more competitive rates. Joe and Aidan discuss how policymakers can use tax rate migration data to inform future policy choices.
