Bill overview
This bill, the HIRE CREDIT Act, amends the tax code to allow businesses to claim the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) for hiring individuals who are ‘displaced disaster victims.’ These individuals must be certified by a local agency as having lost their home or employment due to a major disaster declared by the President since January 1, 2024, and be currently unemployed. The bill includes specific rules regarding the timing of employment and the location of the employee’s work to ensure it aligns with the impact of the disaster zone.
