The bill would establish a uniform standard for taxing income based on physical presence in a state. In doing so, the bill prohibits a state from taxing a nonresident’s income earned when the individual was not physically in that state. “Granite Staters do not pay an income tax in New Hampshire, and they certainly should not be forced to pay one to another state,” said Congressman Chris Pappas. “Every dollar that families can keep in their pocket matters, and workers must be protected from an unfair, out-of-state income tax. The Multi-State Worker Tax Fairness Act would protect those teleworking for a company in a state different from the one they reside in from over-taxation. I will continue to fight for tax fairness for all.” “Remote work has become a mainstay of the modern American economy and yet state tax rules have yet to catch up to our new reality,” said Congressman Jim Himes. “Providing a uniform federal standard for taxing remote workers is a commonsense proposal that would ensure Connecticut teleworkers can continue to contribute to our national economy without being unfairly subjected to double taxation. For the millions of Americans who earn their livings from their home offices, let’s right this wrong once and for all.” "This is a no-brainer. Jersey families who work remotely shouldn't get hit with a tax bill from a state they never stepped foot in," said Congressman Josh Gottheimer. "We're going to make sure hardworking Jersey families keep more of their hard-earned money instead of getting double-taxed for doing their jobs from their kitchen table.” | 1 | 2026-08-27T16:10:01Z | 2026-08-27T16:10:50Z |
