AN ACT ELIMINATING THE EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT.

SB 69 would eliminate Connecticut's Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) by repealing the statute (section 12-704e) that created the program. This change would directly affect low-to-moderate income working individuals and families, particularly those with children, who currently qualify for the credit. The bill's key mechanism is the simple repeal of the existing law, removing the eligibility and calculation rules for the credit. As a result, qualifying residents would no longer receive this refundable tax credit, reducing their annual tax refund or increasing their tax liability. The bill does not create new provisions but removes the current program.
