signed

Nongame Conservation Check-off Extension

Plain-English Summary

AI-generated

Senate Bill 22-166, also known as the Nongame Conservation Check-off Extension, is a law that allows Colorado residents to continue making voluntary donations to support wildlife conservation efforts beyond its original expiration date. This donation option was available on state income tax returns from 2017 to 2022 and would have ended in January 2023; the bill ensures it stays available indefinitely. The signed status means that the law is now active, allowing taxpayers to continue contributing to wildlife conservation through their taxes if they choose to do so.

Official Summary

The voluntary contribution to the Colorado nongame conservation and wildlife restoration cash fund that was authorized to appear on the state income tax return from January 1, 2017, to January 1, 2022, was scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2023. The act extends the voluntary contribution indefinitely. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
