45-second read · 5 questions answered below
What does this do?
This bill would exclude retirement pensions of retired military members and retired law enforcement officers from federal taxable income during the years they work as school resource officers. Officers who serve at least 10 years in that role would get permanent tax-exempt status on their retirement income for life. Employers would have to report to the IRS when someone starts and stops the job, with penalties for failing to do so.
Who does it affect?
Retired service members and retired police officers working as school resource officers, and the school districts and agencies that employ them.
Why does it matter?
The change would reduce federal tax revenue by exempting more retirement income from taxation, and could influence hiring by making these jobs more financially attractive to retirees.
What does it cost, and who pays?
- Reduces federal tax revenue
- affects pensions of qualifying officers
