Idaho lawmakers have sent a tax conformity bill back to the
drawing board because it would have removed an unenforceable rule
banning joint returns from same-sex couples.
Members of the Idaho House of Representatives voted 54-15
Thursday to send the bill back to committee. The legislation is brought
annually to make the state’s tax code conform with changes to federal
tax code. This year’s version sought to remove a requirement for
same-sex couples to file separate state tax returns. That requirement is
now void because the U.S. Supreme Court rules last year that states
can’t enforce gay marriage bans.
