What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Commerce (Commerce) may allocate tax

credits to certain businesses under the economic development tax credit program.

The economic development tax credit program consolidates several economic

development-related tax credit programs and provides that the total amount of

credits allocated under the consolidated program may not exceed the sum of the tax

credits remaining under the other programs. This bill increases the total amount of

credits that Commerce may allocate under the economic development tax credit

program by $25,000,000.
