Provides tax credit to certain volunteer firefighters, volunteer ambulance workers, volunteer reserve forces officers, auxiliary police officers and volunteer emergency medical personnel under certain circumstances.
This bill proposes to offer a tax credit to volunteer firefighters, volunteer ambulance workers, volunteer reserve forces officers, auxiliary police officers, and volunteer emergency medical personnel under specific conditions. The aim is to provide financial relief to those who dedicate their time to these vital public services without compensation.
This bill would primarily affect individuals who volunteer their time in emergency services. By offering a tax credit, the bill seeks to recognize and support the contributions of these volunteers, potentially encouraging more people to participate in these roles.
Currently, the bill has been introduced and referred to the ways and means committee in the Assembly. It was first introduced on January 8, 2025, and was referred to the ways and means committee on the same day. On January 7, 2026, it was referred again to the same committee. No further action has been recorded yet.
