Summary

The bill directs the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) to assess each major tax exemption, credit, deduction or exclusion, publish a report with recommendations, and identify possible savings. It affects the state’s tax system and the Legislature, which must consider the LAO’s findings in annual hearings. The goal is to ensure tax breaks are cost‑effective and do not unduly reduce General Fund and Proposition 98 revenues.
