"The Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2023" will provide much-needed disaster tax relief to residents of Southwest Florida. Specifically the legislation will cover victims of 300+ federally-designated disasters including Hurricanes Ian, Milton, Helene, Idalia, Debby, Nicole, and Fiona; the Maui Fires; recent California wildfires; and the East Palestine Train Derailment. In October, Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) joined bill-sponsor Congressman Greg Steube (R-FL) and a bipartisan delegation of fifty-six additional colleagues in demanding action from Senate leadership on behalf of Southwest Floridians and the American people. H.R. 5863 is cosponsored by Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL) and will now advance to the President's desk. Upon President Biden's signing, this long-awaited tax relief will become law. Congressman Donalds (R-FL) released the following statement: "In 2022, then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) made a devastating decision to deny Southwest Floridians hurricane tax relief in our time of need," said Congressman Byron Donalds (R-FL). "Over the past two years, I have fought alongside Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) and Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) to ensure that disaster tax relief reaches our community. We relentlessly proposed bill after bill until the Senate took action. After seven additional months of partisan hold-up, I am glad the Senate has passed 'The Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2023' and I look forward to President Biden signing this critical legislation into law. It is beyond time that government delivers for Americans in need." More: Social Media summary roll-out HERE. Read the full text of the legislation HERE. Congress.gov profile of the legislation HERE.
