On Oct. 4, Gov. Maura Healey signed into law Massachusetts’ first tax cut in 20 years to the tune of $1 billion. Fast-forward to Jan. 8, when Gov. Healey announced a $1 billion tax shortfall.

I am one of many residents who put in countless hours to make sure the Fair Share Amendment passed. I do not appreciate this fiscal mismanagement.
