Amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), entitled "An act relating to tax reform and State taxation by codifying and enumerating certain subjects of taxation and imposing taxes thereon; providing procedures for the payment, collection, administration and enforcement thereof; providing for tax credits in certain cases; conferring powers and imposing duties upon the Department of Revenue, certain employers, fiduciaries, individuals, persons, corporations and other entities; prescribing crimes, offenses and penalties," prohibiting tax deductions for anti-union activities.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits domestic and foreign corporations operating in Pennsylvania from taking tax deductions for expenses incurred in opposing the unionization efforts of their workers. The bill defines key terms such as "corporation," "labor organization," and "limited partnership," and outlines specific types of anti-union activities that would be disallowed as tax deductions, including expenses related to unfair labor practice complaints, settlement offers, and labor organization meetings or training. However, the bill provides exceptions for certain communications and consultations, such as those with designated employee representatives, shareholders, or related to collective bargaining agreements.
