SR 86 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Urges President and Congress of United States to enact federal legislation providing proportional property tax relief for honorably discharged veterans having a service-connected permanent disability.

This Senate resolution urges the President and Congress to create federal property tax relief for honorably discharged veterans with service-connected permanent disabilities. The proposed legislation would provide annual tax benefits based on a percentage of property taxes, determined by the veteran's disability rating from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Eligibility would be limited to veterans with annual incomes up to $200,000 and would apply only to their principal residences. The resolution does not change any laws but serves as a formal request for federal action to address property tax burdens faced by disabled veterans across the country.
