S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 3570 2019-2020 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E February 8, 2019 ___________ Introduced by Sens. SERRANO, BAILEY, KRUEGER, SAVINO -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Budget and Revenue AN ACT to amend the tax law and the state finance law, in relation to gifts for the support of the New York state council on the arts THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT 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 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. The tax law is amended by adding a new section 630-g to read as follows: § 630-G. GIFT TO THE ARTS FUND. EFFECTIVE FOR ANY TAX YEAR COMMENCING ON OR AFTER JANUARY FIRST, TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN, AN INDIVIDUAL MAY ELECT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE ARTS FUND CREATED PURSUANT TO SECTION NINE- TY-SEVEN-YYYY OF THE STATE FINANCE LAW FOR THE SUPPORT OF THE NEW YORK STATE COUNCIL ON THE ARTS. SUCH CONTRIBUTION SHALL BE IN ANY WHOLE DOLLAR AMOUNT AND SHALL NOT REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TAX OWED BY SUCH INDI- VIDUAL. THE COMMISSIONER SHALL INCLUDE SPACE ON THE PERSONAL INCOME TAX RETURN TO ENABLE A TAXPAYER TO MAKE SUCH CONTRIBUTION. NOTWITHSTANDING EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
