Bill Summary

Improving the earned income credit for working families

AI Summary

This bill aims to improve the earned income credit (EIC) for working families in Massachusetts. It does this by gradually increasing the EIC percentage rate from 23% to 50% over the next few years. Additionally, the bill requires employers to post information about the EIC in a visible location, and directs the state to coordinate a notification system to inform applicants and recipients of certain government benefits about the EIC. The bill also sets the effective dates for the EIC percentage increases, with the first increase taking effect on January 1, 2018.
