Relates to providing for taxpayer gifts for uterine fibroids education and establishes the uterine fibroids education fund
This bill creates a voluntary option for taxpayers to contribute to a new "uterine fibroids education fund" by adding a dollar amount to their state corporate or personal income tax return. The contribution is optional, does not reduce the taxpayer's total tax liability, and must be made through designated space on tax forms. All funds collected will be managed by the tax commissioner and comptroller and can only be used for approved education programs about uterine fibroids, including training for healthcare providers and public outreach. The fund is established under state finance law, with monies required to be spent on these specific educational purposes within each fiscal year.
