The Task Force for the Study of State Tax Credits and Economic Incentives met 10 times over the last six months and approved a list of recommendations to rein in millions of dollars worth of tax credit and incentive programs.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The tax credit task force has finished<\/a>, and its final recommendations will soon be in the hands of Gov. Mary Fallin and the Legislature.<\/p>

StateImpact Oklahoma came online in time to report live from most of the 10 task force meetings, but we\u2019ve detailed all the panel\u2019s deliberations at length.<\/p>

On Thursday, state House staffers released an enormous binder containing the reports, statements, PowerPoints, graphs and charts referenced in six months worth of meetings.<\/p>

It\u2019s 654 pages long, but we\u2019ve made it a little easier to dig through.<\/p>

<\/p>

Reining in tax credits is a legislative priority, and the task force\u2019s recommendations have laid the groundwork for specific bills aimed at capping, sunsetting, overseeing and outright eliminating millions in tax credits and economic incentives.<\/p>

If you want to peruse the entire task force binder, we’ve uploaded a browse-able version here<\/a>, but we’ve also broken down six months worth of meetings one-by-one so you can see what was discussed, what material was presented and read StateImpact Oklahoma’s live and post-coverage.<\/p>\n
