The Refundable Credit Bill
Missouri expands refundable working family tax credit
Modifies provisions relating to the "Missouri Working Family Tax Credit Act" and makes the tax credit refundable
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, the bill would let families get back the working family tax credit even if they owe no tax.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This could give low‑income households extra cash to pay bills, but it also means the state must find money to cover the refunds.
