Provide a tax credit for charitable gifts to public infrastructure

SB 267 (Montana Senate Bill 267) creates a 50% tax credit for Montana taxpayers who make charitable donations to certified public infrastructure projects, capped at $500,000 annually. The credit applies to donations for government-owned facilities like health clinics, senior centers, libraries, and museums that serve public educational, health, or civic needs. Taxpayers must receive certification from the state for the project, and any unused credit can be carried forward for up to three years. The bill died in the legislative process on May 23, 2025, after being tabled in committee and missing a deadline.
