The first part of thisĀ report looks at six states that areĀ simultaneously in danger of not being able to pay public employees’ pensions and giving out massive corporate tax breaks. $3Ā billion was spent on corporate subsidies and tax breaks in Arizona, Connecticut, Kansas, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Wyoming during FY 2018. About two-thirds of that amount would have covered the states’ pension system contributions. Curbing corporate welfare can make a substantial difference in relieving the pressure on state budgets and supportingĀ retirement security for millions of public employees.
