SB 16 an act concerning items to implement the governor's budget
This is the Governor’s annual revenue adjustment bill. It eliminates the initial licensing fees for teachers, nurses, and home childcare providers. The bill also adjusts student loan tax credit to all student loans, not just those from CHESLA, for employers who pay a portion of an employee’s student loan. No employers have taken advantage of this credit since it was adopted last session. The Workforce Housing Tax Credit is proposed to have a credit rate set at 50% of investment by an eligible employer who funds a portion of the development of workforce housing. Under existing law, there is no credit amount specified and no employers have taken advantage of this credit.
