Provides for voluntary contributions by taxpayers on gross income tax returns to support public humanities programming in NJ.

Summary

The bill creates a special fund called the New Jersey Council for the Humanities Fund and lets taxpayers indicate on their state income‑tax return that a portion of their refund—or a separate contribution—be deposited into that fund. The money, after any administrative costs, would be appropriated by the Legislature each year to the New Jersey Council for the Humanities to award grants for public humanities projects across the state. It provides a way for citizens to support cultural programming without changing tax rates.
