The bill requires the Department of Revenue (DOR) to submit a report detailing year-to-date net state tax revenue for the current fiscal year, projections for the remainder of the fiscal year, and an assessment of whether net state tax revenue may exceed the allowable state tax revenue. The report includes specific figures such as the year-to-date net state tax revenue, which is reported as $6,236,222,927, and the estimated total net state tax revenue for FY27, projected at $44,350,139,467. Additionally, the allowable state tax revenue for FY27 is estimated to be $50,100,236,204, indicating that the net state tax revenue is expected to fall short by $5,750,096,737.
The bill also clarifies that the 4% income surtax revenue will not be subject to the limitations established by Chapter 62F regarding allowable state tax revenue. This is significant as it allows for a clearer understanding of the state's financial position without the surtax affecting the overall revenue cap. The report highlights the importance of ongoing monitoring and adjustments based on the latest data, ensuring that the DOR can provide accurate and timely information to the legislature and the public.
