59+Background
60+The education tax credit is a credit for qualifying contributions to Alaska universities and accredited nonprofit Alaska two‐
61+or four‐year colleges for facilities, direct instruction, research and educational support purposes; donations to a school 
62+district or a state‐operated technical and training school for vocational education courses, programs and 
63+facilities; and 
64+donations for Alaska Native cultural or heritage programs for public school staff and students, and a facility in the state that
65+qualifies as a coastal ecosystem learning center under the Coastal American Partnership. 
66+The credit is available to be claimed against insurance premiums tax, title insurance premiums tax, corporate 
67+income tax, 
68+oil and gas production tax, oil and gas property tax, mining license tax, fisheries business tax, and fishery resource landing 
69+tax.  The credit for any one taxpayer cannot exceed $1 million annually across all tax types.  The credit is currently 
70+scheduled to be repealed effective January 1, 2025. 
71+The bill
72+ repeals the sunset provisions.
73+Revenue Impact
74+The revenue impacts only include those eligible tax programs administered by the Department of Revenue (Department).  
75+The bill's fiscal impacts is from eliminating the current repeal provisions beyond 2025.  The revenue impact of eliminating 
76+the sunset provisions assumes similar average usage to the past three years will 
77+continue for the foreseeable future. 
78+Implementation Cost
79+This legislation would require the Department to make minor changes to its Tax Revenue Management System ("TRMS").  
80+Resources required to implement this bill would include staff time to updated tax forms, TRMS, and Revenue Online, and 
81+other miscellaneous costs when applicable.  These costs will 
82+be absorbed by the Tax Division using existing resources.  HB 144 - Fiscal Note 1
