Provides for a tax credit for certain persons relocating to the state to provide or receive reproductive care or gender-affirming care
This bill creates a $500 state tax credit for individuals who permanently relocate to the state to provide or receive reproductive care or gender-affirming care. It applies to healthcare providers moving from states with more restrictive abortion laws or gender-affirming care access, as well as patients (or their parents/guardians) relocating for the same reasons. The credit is available for tax years beginning January 1, 2025, and can be claimed on individual income tax returns. The credit cannot reduce tax liability below zero, but any excess is refundable. The bill defines "healthcare provider" to include licensed physicians, nurses, physician assistants, and pharmacists.
