What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2016, this bill adopts, for state

income and franchise tax purposes, a provision of the Internal Revenue Code

allowing an individual to make a tax-free distribution from his or her individual

retirement account directly to a qualified charitable organization, as defined under

federal law.

Under federal law, the maximum amount that may be distributed tax-free is

$100,000, and the distribution must occur on or after the date on which the

individual on whose behalf the IRA is maintained reaches the age of 70 1/2 years.

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.
