Voluntary tax contributions: California Firefighters' Memorial Voluntary Tax Contribution Fund: California Peace Officer Memorial Foundation Voluntary Tax Contribution Fund.
Summary
Existing law allows taxpayers to designate amounts in excess of their personal income tax liability for the support of specified voluntary contribution funds on the personal income tax return, including, until January 1, 2021, the California Firefighters' Memorial Fund and the California Peace Officer Memorial Foundation Fund, except as otherwise provided. This bill would rename the above-described funds as the California Firefighters' Memorial Voluntary Tax Contribution Fund and the California Peace Officer Memorial Foundation Voluntary Tax Contribution Fund, respectively, and would allow taxpayers to designate voluntary contributions for those funds on the personal income tax return until January 1, 2028, except as otherwise provided.
