Senior Citizens Tax Elimination Act
This bill repeals the tax on Social Security benefits for seniors, making those benefits fully tax-free. It directly affects seniors who receive Social Security benefits and are currently subject to income tax on a portion of those payments. The key provision removes Section 86 of the tax code that previously included benefits in gross income, while a separate funding mechanism appropriates money to Social Security trust funds to replace the lost revenue. The bill ensures Social Security trust funds remain fully funded without requiring new tax increases.
