What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, this bill exempts from

taxation all military income received from the federal government by an individual

who is on active duty in the U.S. armed forces and who dies in a combat zone. The

exemption applies to income received by the individual in the year in which he or she

dies, and in the year before that year if the individual has not filed a return for that

prior year.

Because this bill relates to an exemption from state or local taxes, it may be

referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions for a report to be printed

as an appendix to the bill.
