Legislative findings

It is found and declared that the exemption from the corporation business tax of interest on certain Connecticut state and local obligations may preclude the state from including interest on obligations of the United States in gross income for the purposes of the corporation business tax. It is further found and declared that the taking by the exercise of the power of eminent domain of the rights to exclude from gross income interest on certain state and local obligations for corporation business tax purposes and other related rights is a public use or purpose for the general benefit of the state and its citizens and the promotion of the public welfare. It is further found and declared that the laws governing the refund of taxes should be clarified to ensure that any tax refunds based on the exclusion of revenue from gross income are net of related expenses.
