Version:

The Personal Income Tax Law, in modified conformity with federal income tax laws, defines gross income as income from whatever source derived, except as specifically excluded, and provides various exclusions from gross income.

This bill, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and before January 1, 2032, would exclude from gross income any reparations benefit or payment, as defined, received by a taxpayer during the taxable year.

Existing law requires any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure to contain, among other things, specific goals, purposes, and objectives that the tax expenditure will achieve, detailed performance indicators, and data collection requirements.

This bill also would include additional information required for any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure.

This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.

Existing law, the Pharmacy Law, establishes the California State Board of Pharmacy to license and regulate the practice of pharmacy. Existing law prohibits a person or entity from dispensing or furnishing dangerous drugs or dangerous devices on the internet for delivery to any person in this state without a prescription issued pursuant to an appropriate prior examination of the human or animal for whom the prescription is meant if the person or entity either knew or reasonably should have known that the prescription was not issued pursuant to an appropriate prior examination of the human or animal, or if the person or entity did not act in accordance with specified regulations.This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to those provisions.
