HB 312 -- TAX CREDIT FOR CONTRACEPTION COSTS

SPONSOR: Walker

Beginning January 1, 2020, this bill allows a taxpayer to claim a tax credit up to $500 for the cost of contraception incurred during the year. Contraception includes any method or device used to prevent pregnancy that is approved by Food and Drug Administration and the taxpayer may be required to provide proof of the costs incurred. The tax credit is refundable, but shall not be sold, transferred, or assigned. The tax credits allowed under this section shall not exceed $5 million in any fiscal year.

These provisions will sunset December 31, six years after the effective date.

This bill is the same as HB 2093 (2018) and HB 13 (2017).
