AI Summary
This bill amends the Louisiana research and development tax credit program. It reduces the credit rate for larger companies (from 8% to 5%) and smaller companies (from 40% to 30%), but maintains a higher 10% rate for medium-sized companies (50-99 employees). The bill also allows companies that receive federal Small Business Technology Transfer or Small Business Innovation Research grants to transfer or sell their unused tax credits to other Louisiana taxpayers, subject to certain conditions. Finally, the bill extends the termination of the credit program from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2021.
