Plain-language change summary

The amendments to Bill HB 396 involve removing a clause that would have ended certain provisions related to the Tourism Project Sales Tax Incentive on June 30, 2023. This change means that the incentives will continue past that date, allowing tourism projects to benefit from tax breaks for a longer period. This matters because it supports ongoing investment in tourism, which can boost the local economy and create jobs.
