AI Summary

This bill expands the commuter tax deduction to include fares paid for Regional Transit Authority (RTA) transit, in addition to the existing deduction for Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA) transit, bus, commuter rail, or commuter boat fares. The deduction applies to the portion of the expended amount that exceeds $50 for RTA fares or $150 for MBTA fares, up to a maximum of $750 per individual. The bill also requires the Department of Revenue to provide written notice to cities and towns operating RTAs and to post public signage at transit stops and on RTA buses about the changes to the commuter deduction.
