HB 5090 Connecticut House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT ESTABLISHING A PERSONAL INCOME TAX DEDUCTION FOR MILITARY FUNERAL HONOR GUARD DETAIL COMPENSATION.

HB 5090 establishes a personal income tax deduction for military members who receive compensation for serving on funeral honor guard details under Connecticut law (section 27-76). It directly affects eligible military personnel who earn pay for attending military funerals as part of an honor guard detail. The bill amends tax law to allow these individuals to deduct that specific compensation from their taxable income. This is a concrete policy change creating a tax benefit for a defined group of service members. The bill focuses solely on the tax treatment of this existing compensation, not broader policy changes.
