The Senate Finance Committee will meet on July 7, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. in
room E1.036 of the Capitol Extension.  The Committee will hear invited and
public testimony regarding the Committee's interim charge to
review the effect that Texas Business Tax credits, such as a research and
development credit, have on economic development in Texas. Determine
whether the costs of various tax credits would be adequately offset by the
net increase in state sales tax and other revenues and jobs produced by
each credit. Focus on businesses relocating to or from the State of Texas,
the impact on the tax base, employment, and the overall economic
condition of the state.
