AB 1428

The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax Law impose taxes according to, or measured by, income derived from or attributable to sources within this state. This bill, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2026, and before January 1, 2031, in addition to any other taxes imposed by those laws, would impose a tax at a rate of 0.5% on that portion of income in excess of $10,000,000 during the taxable year, except as provided. The bill would establish the California Affordable Child Care Fund in the State Treasury and would direct all revenues, less reimbursement to the Franchise Tax Board for the administration of the additional tax, to be deposited into that fund. The bill would continuously appropriate the moneys in the fund to the State Treasurer for the purpose of establishing a grant program for licensed child care facilities, as described. By establishing a new continuously appropriated fund, this bill would make an appropriation. This bill would include a change in state statute that would result in a taxpayer paying a higher tax within the meaning of Section 3 of Article XIII A of the California Constitution, and thus would require for passage the approval of 2 3 of the membership of each house of the Legislature.
