S 1865 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act to protect the intent of the Fair Share Amendment

This bill modifies Massachusetts tax laws to ensure that money raised from the 2022 Fair Share Amendment is not counted as general state revenue. Specifically, it prevents the state from using funds generated by this constitutional amendment to offset or reduce the personal income tax liability of individual taxpayers. By legally separating these specific tax revenues from the broader definition of state income, the legislation aims to preserve the original intent of the amendment.
