Lets homeowners keep more money from state or local subsidies for septic systems.
This bill would make state and local government payments for home wastewater systems tax-free. If your state or town helps you pay for a new septic tank or other wastewater fix for your home, you wouldn't have to count that money as income. This means you wouldn't pay federal taxes on it. This could save money for homeowners who get such assistance.
