Relief for Families of the Fallen Act

Summary

The bill changes the tax code so that income taxes are waived for the year a public safety officer dies from a line‑of‑duty injury and for prior years back to the year before the injury occurred. Eligibility is determined using the same criteria as existing death‑benefit programs, aiming to lessen the financial strain on surviving relatives. It has been read twice and sent to the Senate Finance Committee for further action.
