ICHS Opposes Elimination of Tax Credits

ICHS provided ICHS_Testimony-SB344Taxation1-17-12 before the Senate Tax and Fiscal Policy Committee to oppose SB344, a bill that would eliminate a range of tax credits that benefit vulnerable Hoosiers and the organizations that serve them, such as:

• Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC);  
• Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP);
• Section 42 tax credits; and
• Unified Tax Credit for the Elderly

While the intent of the bill is to ensure review credits, ICHS believes there is a better way for policy review than mass elimination and special interest lobbying to reinstate some. 

Concerned individuals are encouraged to reach out to their legislators about this important tax credit. Contact your legislator through www.in.gov/legislative/2345.htm .
