The Credit Donations Bill
Tax credit for donations to Connecticut charities introduced
An Act Establishing A Tax Credit For Donations Made To Connecticut-based Charities.
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, the bill would let Connecticut taxpayers lower their state tax bill by a set amount for each donation to a state charity.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Donors could keep more of their paycheck, encouraging more giving, while the state gives up some tax revenue that all residents share.
