What it does
The Supporting Teachers Through Tax Fairness Act would amend the Internal Revenue Code to exclude from gross income up to $50,000 in wages earned by K–12 public school teachers, counselors, aides, or instructors who work at least 900 hours per school year. The bill provides an increased exclusion of up to $65,000 for teachers working in schools with high poverty rates (75% or more students eligible for free or reduced-cost lunches), rural schools, or in special education or STEM fields. The exclusion would apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, and requires the Treasury Secretary to issue regulations for verification of eligibility.
