What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows an individual, when calculating income for state income tax

purposes, to subtract the tuition expenses paid by the individual for the individual

or the individual's dependent to participate in an apprenticeship program that is

approved by the Department of Workforce Development. The deduction first applies

to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2020.

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.
