The Employers Money Bill
Kentucky employers could get money for training new workers
AN ACT relating to an apprenticeship tax credit.
Good for everyday people ·
This bill would give money back to businesses that train new workers, which could help more people get jobs and learn skills.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This bill would give a tax break to businesses in Kentucky that train new workers through apprenticeship programs. This could be good because it might help more people get jobs and learn important skills without having to pay for all their training. Businesses would save money on their taxes, which might encourage them to offer more of these training programs. However, when the state gives tax breaks, it means less money for other state services. People should think about if this is the best way to spend state money to help workers and businesses.
