Bill > S01222

This bill provides a tax credit of up to $1,100 to certain volunteer firefighters, volunteer ambulance workers, volunteer hazardous materials workers, and volunteer emergency medical service personnel in New York based on the number of years of consecutive qualifying service. "Qualifying service" is defined as being a member in good standing of a volunteer department for at least one year, completing all required training courses, and attending at least 10% of the department's activities. The bill aims to incentivize and recognize the contributions of these volunteers who provide critical emergency services to their communities.
