This bill proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide a tax exclusion for military personnel. Specifically, it seeks to exclude compensation received in connection with inactive-duty training from gross income , meaning this pay would no longer be subject to federal income tax. The legislation achieves this by adding "inactive-duty training compensation" to the existing definition of a "qualified military benefit" under Section 134(b) of the Code. This change aims to reduce the tax burden on service members who participate in inactive-duty training. The provisions of this bill would apply to all compensation received after the date of its enactment.
