Bill > H3013

This bill establishes a new tax credit for commuter ferry users in Massachusetts, allowing individuals who use a commuter ferry as their primary mode of transportation to work at least 50% of their commuting days to receive a $500 tax credit. The proposed amendment would be added to Chapter 62 of the Massachusetts General Laws, which governs state income taxation. By offering this financial incentive, the bill aims to encourage the use of public waterway transportation, potentially reducing road congestion and supporting more environmentally friendly transportation options. Taxpayers would be able to claim this credit when filing their state income taxes, providing a direct financial benefit to those who rely on commuter ferries for their daily work commute.
