Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 418 -- Small Business and Entrepreneurial Growth Act

Sponsor:  Ervin

This bill establishes the Small Business and Entrepreneurial
Growth Act which allows, beginning January 1, 2010, small
business employers who increase their total payroll by increasing
the number of jobs and meeting certain qualifications to retain
the Missouri withholding tax from the salaries of the newly
created jobs for one year.  If the employer pays at least 50% of
the cost of the premiums for health insurance for all employees,
the withholding tax can be retained for two years.  No employer
retaining these withholding taxes will be eligible for benefits
under the Quality Jobs Act.
