The Removes Income Bill
Colorado bill removes age limit for earned income tax credit
State Earned Income Tax Credit Age Limit
Good for everyday people ·
This bill would let older people get a state tax credit, helping them keep more of the money they earn.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This bill would help older people in Colorado keep more of the money they earn by letting them get a state tax credit. Right now, there's an age limit that stops some older workers from getting this money. If this bill passes, more people who work hard could get a little extra help. Some people might worry that this would mean the state has less money for other things. But supporters believe it's fair to give this credit to all working people, no matter their age. Now is the time to tell your lawmakers if you think older workers should get this tax credit.
