H.R. 2347Passed HouseTaxation
Survivor Justice Tax Prevention Act
Sponsor: Rep. Smucker, Lloyd (R-PA)3 cosponsorsIntroduced Mar 25, 2025
✆
In plain English
The bill allows individuals to exclude from taxable income damages they receive from sexual assault or sexual misconduct, regardless of whether there are medical records or visible physical injuries. If a court judgment, settlement, or award states that damages are due to sexual assault or sexual misconduct, the IRS must prove otherwise in any tax dispute rather than the other way around. The bill also requires the IRS to publicize this tax exclusion to the public. Rep. Lloyd Smucker (R-PA) sponsored the measure with support from three cosponsors.
