Urges President and Congress to exempt Social Security benefits from federal income tax.

New Jersey's Assembly Resolution 171 urges the U.S. President and Congress to pass legislation exempting Social Security benefits from federal income tax. The resolution notes that nearly 90% of seniors rely on these benefits (averaging $23,000 annually), with current federal law taxing 50-85% of benefits for individuals earning over $25,000 annually. It emphasizes that income thresholds for taxation have not been adjusted for inflation since the 1990s. This resolution does not create new law but calls for federal action to remove the tax burden on Social Security recipients.
