AI Summary

This bill modifies how revenues from the Corporate Activity Tax (CAT) are allocated, changing the distribution of funds received by the Department of Revenue starting January 1, 2026. Specifically, the bill mandates that two-thirds of the CAT revenues will be transferred to the Fund for Student Success (which supports education), while one-third will be directed to the State Highway Fund. The legislation maintains the existing process for depositing these funds in a suspense account in the State Treasury, with provisions for paying administrative expenses and refunds. The bill ensures that a working balance of up to $500,000 can be retained by the department for processing refunds, and it specifies that the new revenue allocation will take effect 91 days after the adjournment of the 2025 legislative session. By diversifying the use of CAT revenues, the bill aims to support both educational initiatives and transportation infrastructure in Oregon.
