A 4116 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes a manufacturing reinvestment account program to incentivize capital investment and workforce training in New Jersey with income tax rate reductions, deferrals, and accelerated deductions.

This bill creates a tax incentive program for small New Jersey manufacturers (employing ≤50 people) to invest in equipment and workforce training. It allows businesses to deduct up to $100,000 annually from their income tax for contributions to a special "manufacturing reinvestment account" held at a New Jersey financial institution. Funds in the account can be used for qualifying expenses like machinery/equipment purchases or New Jersey-based worker training, with unused funds earning tax-advantaged treatment until distributed. The program applies for five consecutive tax years, after which remaining balances are taxed normally.
