Subject: | Treasury Do Not Pay Initiative (HB 108, 2021-2022) |
This legislation, modeled after the Federal Do Not Pay Legislation, would establish a state database of organizations, individuals and entities which are not eligible to receive funds from a commonwealth agency. This database managed by the State Treasury shall utilize specific records to provide a comprehensive list to state agencies of who is eligible to receive taxpayer funds. The records, under the draft, include: • Death Certificates from Vital Records • Debarment and Suspension from the Department of General Services • Credit Alert System used by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development • The list of individuals and entities under the Department of Human Services Medicheck list • The list of individuals or entities from the Department of Revenue who owe taxes to the commonwealth • The list of individuals who have failed to make child support payments under the Department of Human Services. • Any database used by the Federal Department of Treasury for the Federal Do Not Pay Initiative. By enacting a State Do Not Pay Initiative, the Commonwealth can prevent state funds going to any individual, entity or organization which is ineligible to receive funds. Please join me in co-sponsoring this legislation. PREVIOUS SPONSORS: GAYDOS, THOMAS, IRVIN, GROVE, KAUFFMAN, BERNSTINE, GLEIM, WEBSTER, WHEELAND, B. MILLER, ROWE, E. NELSON, GILLEN and ARMANINI |
