SB1608

Authorizes a tax credit for contributions to youth police initiatives in urban areas.

This bill authorizes a tax credit for contributions to eligible entities that operate youth police initiatives in urban areas. These initiatives aim to engage at-risk youth and local police officers in activities to build trust and break down stereotypes. The tax credit is equal to 100% of the contribution amount and can be carried forward for five years or until fully redeemed. The program will automatically sunset six years after the effective date unless reauthorized by the general assembly.
