Summary

The bill lets the California ABLE Program Trust accept gifts, grants and legislative money from philanthropic groups and use those funds for outreach to people with disabilities. It also orders the Franchise Tax Board to add a notice on tax‑return instructions that taxpayers can direct a portion of their refund into the ABLE trust. The changes aim to grow participation in ABLE accounts and make the program more visible to eligible Californians.
