What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows a taxpayer to claim an income and franchise tax credit equal to

$5,000 for each unemployed state resident hired by the taxpayer in the taxable year

to work a full-time job at the taxpayer's business in this state. The maximum

amount of all such credits that a taxpayer may claim is $250,000. If the amount of

the credit exceeds the taxpayer's tax liability, the taxpayer does not receive a refund,

but may carry forward the amount of any unused credit to subsequent taxable years.
