SR 128 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges Congress to exempt unemployment insurance and certain leave benefits from federal taxation.

This Senate Resolution (SR 128) urges Congress to exempt unemployment insurance benefits and two types of leave benefits - family temporary disability leave and temporary disability leave - from federal taxation. It directly affects individuals receiving these benefits, including those unemployed, caring for sick family members, or recovering from injury/illness. The resolution notes that New Jersey does not tax these benefits, but federal taxation adds financial strain during vulnerable times when recipients have limited income. As a non-binding resolution, it seeks to influence federal policy but does not change current tax law.
