Authorizes a tax credit for the adoption of certain animals

Summary

The bill would allow Missouri individual taxpayers to claim a refundable credit of up to $125 for each qualified pet adoption, with a maximum of two credits per taxpayer per year. The total amount of credits issued statewide could not exceed $500,000 in any calendar year, and credits would be lost if the adopted animal is mistreated or returned. The program was set to run from 2027 until it sunsets in 2032, but the measure failed in committee.
