Exempts certain families from income tax

SB 1191, titled the "Next Generation Family Act," exempts Missouri taxpayers with three or more children (who qualify for federal dependency exemptions) from state income tax starting in 2027. It directly affects families meeting this federal dependency threshold, regardless of the federal exemption amount. The bill requires the state Department of Revenue to create implementing rules, but the core change is a state tax exemption for qualifying households. This policy modifies the state income tax structure for eligible families beginning with tax years after 2026.
