AI Summary

This bill provides a state income tax exemption for military retirees aged 63 and older, allowing them to subtract up to $17,500 of federal retirement pay or pension from their taxable income. The bill defines "Armed Forces of the United States" comprehensively, including regular and reserve components of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Space Force, and National Guard. The exemption is subject to several important conditions: the subtraction cannot exceed the total federal retirement pay received, and it cannot include amounts already subtracted under another existing tax provision. The Department of Revenue is required to annually adjust the $17,500 maximum amount to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, West Region, rounding down to the nearest $50 increment. The tax exemption will apply to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2025, with the first adjustment to the exemption amount scheduled for the tax year starting January 1, 2026. The bill will take effect 91 days after the adjournment of the 2025 regular legislative session, providing a targeted tax benefit to older military retirees to recognize their service.
