What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill exempts from taxation the value of an Olympic medal won by an

individual. The bill also exempts from taxation any payment received by such an

individual from the U.S. Olympic Committee to the extent that the payment is made

because the individual won an Olympic medal. The bill first applies, retroactively,

to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2015.

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.
