 AN  ACT  to amend a chapter of the laws of 2019 amending the tax law and
   the state finance law relating to gifts for the  support  of  the  New
   York  state  council  on  the  arts,  as proposed in legislative bills
   numbers  S.  3570  and  A.  7994,  in  relation  to  making  technical
   corrections thereto

   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
 
   Section 1. Section 1 of a chapter of the laws of 2019 amending the tax
 law and the state finance law relating to gifts for the support  of  the
 New  York  state  council  on the arts, as proposed in legislative bills
 numbers S. 3570 and A. 7994, is amended to read as follows:
   Section 1. [The legislature hereby finds and determines that,  due  to
 severe  budgetary  constraints,  the amount of state funds available for
 the support of the New York state council on the arts has  been  sharply
 diminished  over the past few years.  This decrease in support has had a
 devastating effect upon many of New  York's  cultural  institutions,  as
 well as many related or dependent businesses and employees. Accordingly,
 the]  THE  legislature hereby finds and determines that taxpayers of the
 state of New York should have the opportunity to use the New York  state
 personal  income  tax  form as a mechanism for making voluntary contrib-
 utions for the support of the New York state council on the arts. It  is
 the  intent  of  the  legislature  that  any  funds so contributed shall
 supplement and not offset or diminish in any way  the  amount  of  funds
 made  available  to  the  New York state council on the arts pursuant to
 annual budget appropriations.
   § 2. This act shall take effect on the  same  date  and  in  the  same
 manner  as  a  chapter  of the laws of 2019 amending the tax law and the
 state finance law relating to gifts for the  support  of  the  New  York
 state  council  on the arts, as proposed in legislative bills numbers S.
 3570 and A. 7994, takes effect.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
