2007 House Bill 4388

FY 2008 Executive Budget “Revenue Enhancements”

Introduced in the House

March 1, 2007

Introduced by Rep. Fred Miller (D-31)

To require a person to add to their taxable income for purposes of calculating their state income tax liability any expenses incurred in the production of certain income that is not taxable under the state income tax, if those expenses were deducted from the person’s federal income tax base. That applies to expenses associated with oil and gas production. This is one of a number of “tax expenditure repeal” proposals proposed to pay for higher spending in the Fiscal Year 2007-2008 budget, and would take in an additional $3.9 million from taxpayers.
