The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 40, aims to amend the general statutes to create a tax credit for individuals or entities that make donations to nonprofit organizations providing educational access and opportunity scholarships. This initiative is designed to encourage financial contributions to nonprofits that support educational opportunities for students, thereby enhancing access to education.
The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to establish the tax credit framework. The intent is to incentivize donations, ultimately benefiting students who require financial assistance to pursue their educational goals.
