2020 Senate Bill 768

Authorize “corporate welfare” benefit reductions

Introduced in the Senate

Feb. 4, 2020

Introduced by Sen. Jim Ananich (D-27)

To require that if any modifications are made to the terms and conditions attached to state grants, loans, cash subsidies, tax credits or other benefits selectively given to certain companies have the effect of reducing the number of new (or “retained”) jobs promised by the company, then then benefits must be reduced in the same proportion. This is part of a corporate welfare reform package consisting of Senate Bills 767 to 771 and House Bills 5458 to 5462.

Referred to the Committee on Economic and Small Business Development
