April 1998 Special Session Senate Bill 5 provides for the Department of Revenue to exclude one or more of the factors in determining the apportionment factor in computing the income tax or franchise tax liability of corporations that operate in this state and in other states. It is unclear whether the subject of this bill is to be defined as a tax exemption under section
13.52(6) of the statutes.
Therefore, pursuant to Senate Rule
36(2)(c) and section 13.52 (6), Wisconsin Statutes, I am directing the Co-Chairs of the Joint Survey committee on Tax Exemptions to prepare and submit a report in writing setting forth an opinion on the desirability of April 1998 Special Session Senate Bill 5, as a matter of public policy and I have referred the bill to the Joint Committee on Finance.
Relating to: food stamps for qualified aliens and making an appropriation.
