Modifies provisions relating to benevolent tax credits

HB 3118 modifies tax credit rules for business contributions to community programs. It allows up to 70% tax credits for donations to approved programs in small communities (under 15,000 residents) or distressed areas, with an annual cap of $6 million. Special provisions apply to affordable housing investments in distressed communities, offering up to 55% tax credits under separate annual limits. The bill affects businesses and financial institutions making qualifying contributions, excluding normal business activities like banking or insurance operations.
