MINOR

This bill extends the Colorado Homeless Contribution Tax Credit from expiring in 2026 to remain available through income tax year 2030. The update includes a legislative declaration stating that the program successfully leveraged over $20 million in the first year, justifying its continuation. Additionally, the repeal date for this specific tax credit section was adjusted to December 31, 2044, to align with the new expiration timeline.

TIMELINE

The expiration date for the tax credit was changed from income tax year 2026 to income tax year 2030.

The statutory repeal date for this section was updated from December 31, 2040, to December 31, 2044, to match the extended expiration of the tax credit.

REQUIREMENT

A new subsection was added to the legislative declaration to document the program's performance, noting that 8,320 donations totaling over $20 million were leveraged in the first year.
