Allow for the return of surplus revenue to taxpayers

This bill (LC 1310) proposed returning excess state revenue collected in a given fiscal year to taxpayers. It aimed to direct surplus funds - money the state collected beyond its budgeted needs - to individuals or businesses that paid state taxes. However, the bill was drafted in November 2024, placed on hold, and ultimately died in the legislative process on May 26, 2025, without becoming law. As a result, no policy change was implemented.
