Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


    





                           STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
    
                                  RS07589
    
    The purpose of this legislation is to expand 
    independent living opportunities offered by Idaho's Centers 
    for Independent Living to the State's approximately 294,263 
    citizens with disabilities by:
    
    Providing a tax credit to Idaho citizens who donate 
    funds to Idaho Centers for Independent Living (CILs) 
    will encourage Idahoan's to donate to CILs. 
    Originally funded by Congress in 1981 under the 
    Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 
    CIL's provide Idahoans with the benefit of services 
    offered to people with disabilities. These services 
    enable people with disabilities to live at home, at a 
    significantly lower cost to the State than if they 
    were to live in institutions.
    
                                FISCAL NOTE
    
    This legislation will have minimal fiscal impact for the 
    State, but will provide significant relief for the limited 
    budgets of the Idaho Centers for Independent Living. No new 
    funding would be required as a result of this legislation; 
    however, revenue from income taxes totaling approximately 
    $3,876 per fiscal year would not be collected by the State.
