This bill allows taxpayers to subtract interest paid on qualified education loans and specific "education debt" from their taxable income. It creates two deduction options: (A) interest on loans already deductible under federal tax rules (26 U.S.C. §221), and (B) interest on state or federal student loans used solely for undergraduate tuition/expenses at college. Taxpayers cannot claim both deductions for the same expenses. The policy directly affects individuals with education-related debt who file state tax returns in this jurisdiction.
Establishes a personal income tax deduction for the interest paid on student loans by individual taxpayers having a federal adjusted income of between $65,000 and $125,000, and married taxpayers filing jointly having a federal adjusted income of between $130,000 and $250,000.
This bill establishes a program to create "manufacturing development zones" in designated geographic areas, primarily targeting heavy manufacturers (like construction, mining, and metal processing) while excluding apparel, electronics, food, and textiles. Local governments (counties or municipalities) can apply to designate zones, with limits of six statewide and two per county annually. Qualified businesses moving into these zones after designation receive property and income tax credits for ten years, provided they create new jobs, make capital investments, and meet local standards. The program aims to attract new manufacturing investment to specific areas through these tax incentives.

The deduction applies to expenses that would otherwise count toward federal adjusted gross income, with the provision taking effect for taxable years beginning January 1, 2025. The bill defines "fertility preservation services" narrowly to cover only egg-related preservation methods.
This bill creates a $500 state tax credit for individuals who permanently relocate to the state to provide or receive reproductive care or gender-affirming care.

The credit is available for tax years beginning January 1, 2025, and can be claimed on individual income tax returns. The credit cannot reduce tax liability below zero, but any excess is refundable. The bill defines "healthcare provider" to include licensed physicians, nurses, physician assistants, and pharmacists.
