SB 70 - This act bars an employer from receiving favorable tax treatment or loans from the state for 5 years when 25% or more of the employer's workforce is paid under the federal poverty level as published yearly by the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Agencies authorizing tax treatment or the issuance of loans may waive this restriction for a first-time occurrence. Findings of ineligibility may be appealed to the administrative hearing commission.CHRIS HOGERTY
