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

This Senate Resolution urges Congress to exempt from taxation unemployment insurance benefits, family temporary disability leave benefits, and temporary disability leave benefits. The resolution argues that these benefits, which are not taxed by New Jersey, should not be taxed federally as they provide crucial support to individuals facing unemployment, illness, or caring for a newborn. The resolution highlights the financial strain on individuals who are already struggling with limited income sources.
