Encouraging States to establish "Veterans Tax Relief Weekends" that coincide with Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans Day, providing a practical way for communities across the country to recognize the service of veterans and members of the Armed Forces by providing financial relief to them.

This joint resolution encourages U.S. states to establish "Veterans Tax Relief Weekends" to benefit veterans, active duty military personnel, Reservists, and National Guard members. It proposes that states voluntarily implement three-day sales tax holidays coinciding with Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans Day. During these periods, eligible individuals and their families would receive temporary relief from state sales taxes on consumer purchases, offering a practical way for communities to recognize their service.
