About 190,000 Utahns benefited from the $414 million tax break last year, according to the Treasury Department.

After the debate, Matheson said he felt he showed that Love doesn’t understand the practical implications of her proposals and "I don’t think they’ve been very thoughtful." Love did not answer questions after the debate.

The two will meet for their second debate Thursday, which will be televised on KSL.
