What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill adopts, for state income and franchise tax purposes, a provision in the

Internal Revenue Code that relates to exempting from taxation certain payments

made by an employer to an employee to reimburse the employee for costs he or she

has paid for medical care for the employee's adult child. This bill first applies to

taxable years beginning on January 1, 2011.

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.
