No Tax on Drill Pay Act
This bill, known as the No Tax on Drill Pay Act, would exclude certain military compensation from federal income tax. It directly affects members of the U.S. military who receive pay for inactive-duty training, which includes weekend drills and other training activities outside of regular duty. The legislation amends the Internal Revenue Code to add inactive-duty training compensation to the list of qualified military benefits that are not subject to taxation. This change applies to any compensation received after the bill becomes law, meaning it would affect future training pay rather than past earnings.
