Modifies the sunset dates for the missouri works program
HB 820 modifies the operational procedures for Missouri's Works program rather than changing its sunset date (as incorrectly stated in the title). The bill requires the state department to respond to qualified companies' benefit requests within 5 business days (or 15 days for manufacturing companies) and to approve/reject "notice of intent" submissions within 30 days. It mandates that companies document efforts to employ racial minorities in proportions matching Missouri's census data and requires annual reports detailing jobs created, including minority employment. The bill also clarifies how benefits interact with other state tax programs, ensuring no double-dipping on tax credits.
