Bill > S2050

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 62 of Massachusetts state law, which governs income taxation, by adding a new tax exemption specifically for active duty military personnel. Under this proposed change, any wages received from the United States government by a Massachusetts resident who is a member of the United States military and serving on active duty outside of Massachusetts would be exempted from state income tax. This means that military service members who are Massachusetts residents but currently stationed in another state or country would not have to pay Massachusetts state income tax on their military wages. The bill aims to provide a financial benefit to military personnel by reducing their tax burden while they are serving their country away from home, which could be seen as a way to support and recognize the sacrifices made by military service members.
