AI Summary

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to establish an additional 4% state income tax on the portion of annual taxable income exceeding $1 million. The income threshold would be adjusted annually to account for increases in the cost of living, similar to the method used for federal income tax brackets. The revenue generated from this tax would be used, subject to appropriation by the state legislature, solely for funding public education, public colleges and universities, and the repair and maintenance of roads, bridges, and public transportation. The proposed amendment would apply to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019.
