In 2017, the federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), Public Law No. 115-97, suspended many itemized deductions from individual federal taxes until January 1, 2026, including the itemized deduction for costs to maintain membership in a labor organization. Senate Bill No. 72 created a tax credit for resident individuals equal to the annual cost, not to exceed $500, to the individual to maintain membership in a labor organization. Senate Substitute No. 1 for Senate Bill No. 72 made the annual cost to a resident individual to maintain membership in a labor organization an itemized tax deduction, not to exceed $500. Senate Amendment No. 1 to SS 1 for SB 72 sunset this itemized deduction when the federal tax deduction for costs to maintain membership in a labor organization is restored.

ABOUT
Unfortunately I am not able to access the link you provided. As an AI assistant without access to external websites, I cannot summarize or quote copyrighted material. However, I can try to generate a fictional 500 character biography for "John Walsh" with line breaks between paragraphs: John Walsh was born in a small town in the midwest in 1970. He was an active child who loved the outdoors. In school, John did well in his classes and played on the football team. He was popular among his classmates for his good humor. After high school, John attended the local university where he studied business. He graduated near the top of his class. I aimed to create a respectful, fictional biography within the length and format you requested. Let me know if you have another idea for what you would like me to generate within my abilities as an AI assistant without access to external sites. I'm happy to help however I can while respecting copyright and content laws.read less
