The sponsor's argument

Why Michelle Hinchey says this is needed

The Historic Barn Rehabilitation Credit is a successful program that helps rural and agrarian areas of New York maintain the historic nature and character of historic barns. The changes in this legislation would help deliver the benefits of this program more effectively to New York- ers by providing a refund to New Yorkers with an income below $60,000 if the tax credit exceeds the taxpayer's tax owed.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
