AI Summary
This bill proposes to tax non-profit entities that engage in settling or re-settling "illegal immigrants" as if they were for-profit entities, meaning they would be subject to the Business Enterprise Tax (BET). The bill defines "settling" and "re-settling" broadly to include providing housing assistance, cash, vouchers, legal aid for residency, advice, or translation services related to government benefits, transportation, or other goods and services. An "illegal immigrant" is defined as anyone known or should be known to be in the United States without legal right or permission, or who entered without a legal port of entry, to obtain housing, services, residency, or family reunification. Furthermore, the bill allows the Department of Revenue Administration to award bounties, up to 10% of the assessed tax, to individuals who report such non-profit activities to the department, with the department having sole discretion over these awards.
