2005 Senate Bill 707

Authorize income tax checkoff for Michigan Youth Challenge Program

Introduced in the Senate

Aug. 31, 2005

Introduced by Sen. Cameron Brown (R-16)

To allow an individual to choose to automatically contribute $2 or more from his or her state income tax refund to the Michigan Youth Challenge Program, which is a voluntary military “boot camp” type program for at-risk youth between the ages of 16 and 18. This would have the effect of reducing the amount of a person’s tax refund. A person not receiving a refund could use his or her tax return to contribute to the program.

Referred to the Committee on Finance
