What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill creates an individual income tax deduction for amounts paid by an individual to process the meat of a game animal that the individual lawfully kills if he or she donates the processed meat to a charitable organization. Under current law, "game animals" include deer, moose, elk, bear, rabbits, squirrels, fox, and raccoon. The bill also exempts from income and franchise taxes the amount of any income derived from fees received for processing the meat of a game animal.
Because this bill relates to an exemption from state or local taxes, it may be referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions for a report to be printed as an appendix to the bill.
