Item 1

 
Sec. 3. 36 MRSA §5122, sub-§2, śN is enacted to read:

 
N.__Interest or dividends on obligations or securities of
this State and its political subdivisions and authorities to
the extent included in federal adjusted gross income.

 
Sec. 4. Application. That section of this Act that repeals and
replaces the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 36, section 5122,
subsection 2, paragraph M applies to tax years beginning on or
after January 1, 2001.

 
SUMMARY

 
This bill increases the amount of the income tax deduction for
retirement benefit income received by retired teachers in the
Maine State Retirement System to $10,000 annually.

 
This bill also corrects a conflict created by Public Law 1999,
chapters 708 and 731, each of which enacted a new Maine Revised
Statutes, Title 36, section 5122, subsection 2, paragraph M.
This bill resolves the conflict by reallocating one of the new
paragraphs to be the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 36, section
5122, subsection 2, paragraph N.
