Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The stated purpose of this bill is to raise the maximum donated amount from $2,500 to $5,000 and provide that the credit applies retroactively to January 1, 2024. Legislation passed during the 2022 Legislative Session already raised the maximum donated amount from $2,500 to $5,000, effective January 1, 2022. The only change in this bill is to retroactively delay this increase from 2022 to 2024. In the event that one or more eligible donors donated more than $2,500 of food in either 2022 or 2023, then the provisions of this bill would decrease their tax credit benefit in those years. Additional administrative costs incurred by the State Tax Department would be $10,000 in FY2024.
