Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Income Tax Act to create the Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) Research Fund checkoff. Provides that the Department of Revenue shall print on its standard individual income tax form a provision indicating that if the taxpayer wishes to contribute to the Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) Research Fund, he or she may do so by stating the amount of the contribution on the return and that the contribution will reduce the taxpayer's refund or increase the amount of payment to accompany the return. Amends the Department of Public Aid Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois. Provides that, subject to appropriation, the Department of Public Aid shall make grants from the Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) Research Fund to the Les Turner ALS Foundation for research on Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Amends the State Finance Act to create the Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) Research Fund. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Department is required to include the Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS) Research Fund checkoff provision on individual income tax forms beginning with the taxable year ending on December 31, 2003 (now, no date stated).

 Fiscal Note (Department of Revenue)
 SB1044 will have minimal impact on the Dept. of Revenue. However, if the number of checkoffs on the Ill. Income Tax Form exceeds the number of available spaces, another page will have to be added at an approximate cost of $57,000.

Adds reference to:
