MO HB32

Extends the freeze on state user fee increases from five years to ten years, beginning August 28, 2009, unless increases implement federal programs or result from General Assembly action

Extends small business regulatory protection requirements from five to ten years, requiring state agencies proposing rules to either certify no adverse impact on businesses with fewer than 50 employees, certify the rule protects public life/health/safety, or exempt small businesses from coverage

Extends the small business tax deduction program through December 31, 2019, allowing deductions of $10,000 per new job paying at least county average wage, or $20,000 if the employer also provides health insurance and pays at least 50% of premiums

Resets the sunset provision so the small business tax deduction program will automatically expire three years after August 28, 2019, unless reauthorized by the General Assembly
