Bill overview
The Tax Fairness for Survivors Act amends the Internal Revenue Code to exclude payments received as a result of judgments, awards, or settlements related to sexual assault or sexual harassment claims from an individual’s gross income. This includes payments like backpay, frontpay, punitive damages, and attorney’s fees. The bill also adjusts related tax codes, such as those for Social Security, railroad retirement, unemployment, wage withholding, and clarifies that these exclusions apply to these various tax systems.
