AI Summary

This bill authorizes and directs the Joint Committee on Economic Development and Emerging Technologies to study the benefits of establishing a New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) program in Massachusetts similar to the existing federal NMTC program. The study will evaluate the potential benefits of a Massachusetts NMTC program, which would enable participating community development entities to make business loans and other investments in low-income community businesses to promote job creation and other positive community impacts. The study will review the success of similar state NMTC programs in other states and evaluate how a Massachusetts NMTC program would attract private capital and promote economic development in the state's low-income communities.
