SB 1: Relating to: an income tax subtraction for qualified tips and for qualified overtime compensation; state aid for school districts; surplus refund payments; increasing funding for special education and school age parents programs; state aid to technical colleges and the technical college district revenue limit; and making an appropriation. (FE)

This bill proposes changes to Wisconsin state tax law and education funding, primarily affecting individual taxpayers and school districts. It would allow residents to subtract certain federal deductions for tips and overtime pay from their state income tax, while also increasing funding for special education, school-age parents programs, and technical colleges. The legislation includes specific rules for calculating these tax benefits and defines how various income sources are treated for state tax purposes. Additionally, it establishes a revenue limit for technical college districts and provides for surplus refund payments.
