"When we look at how states are taxing their residents, it's clear they're falling very far short of what most people consider to be a fair tax code," said Carl Davis, ITEP's research director.
"The core problem is not that complicated," Davis said. "The problem is that state and local governments are raising most of their tax revenue from regressive taxes on what people buy, or the homes that they own or rent, and those expenses swallow up a larger share of income for low- and middle-income people."
