Bill Summary
To exempt the amount of tips or gratuities declared by a taxpayer and overtime pay from the personal income tax.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Connecticut's tax laws to exempt certain types of income from personal income tax, meaning individuals will no longer have to pay state income tax on these earnings. Specifically, it aims to exclude the amount of tips or gratuities that a taxpayer reports, which are extra payments given to service workers, and any overtime pay, which is the money earned for working beyond regular hours. The intention behind this legislation is to reduce the tax burden on workers who receive these forms of compensation.
