Just to get everyone up-to-date, the following states have either introduced bills in their legislature to enact combined reporting into their state income taxing structure, or their governors have actually enacted the legislation:
1. Massachusetts (SB 2685 and HB 4672) enacted legislation; begins 2009;
2. Wisconsin (SB 62) enacted legislation; begins 2009;
3. Maryland (HB 1244) introduced legislation;
4. Iowa (SF 211) introduced legislation;
5. Tennessee (SB 502) introduced legislation;
6. Missouri (SB 241) introduced legislation;
7. Rhode Island (HB 5832) introduced legislation:
8. Connecticut (SB 807) introduced legislation;
9. New Mexico (SB 389) introduced legislation;
10. West Virginia (SB 680) enacted legislation; begins 2009;
A number of the states above have introduced similar legislation in prior years with no success; however, with the current environment and budget crises states are enduring, the legislation may have a greater chance of passing than in the past.
