SROS Act Strengthening Resources for our Schools Act
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to exclude from gross income any retirement income received by individuals who retired from service as a law enforcement officer or member of the Armed Forces and subsequently serve as school resource officers.
The HB6120, also known as the Strengthening Resources for our Schools Act (SROS Act), seeks to amend the Internal Revenue Code. This bill proposes to exclude from gross income any retirement income received by individuals who have retired from their service as a law enforcement officer or member of the Armed Forces and then take up roles as school resource officers. This means that these individuals would not have to pay taxes on their retirement income if they use it to support their new roles in schools.
The bill would primarily affect retired law enforcement officers and Armed Forces members who become school resource officers. By not having to pay income tax on their retirement income, they could potentially have more financial resources to dedicate to their work in schools, which could enhance safety and support services for students.
As of November 18, 2025, HB6120 has been introduced in the House and referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means. This means the bill is in its early stages of consideration, and it will need to go through further steps in the legislative process, including committee review, debate, and potential amendments, before it could be voted on by the full House and, if passed, moved to the Senate for further consideration.
