The Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act has been signed into law, providing federal tax relief to families and businesses affected by natural disasters. The legislation aims to alleviate the financial burden on those impacted, allowing them to focus on rebuilding their lives and communities.
Assemblyman James Gallagher expressed his support for the new law, highlighting its significance in aiding recovery efforts. "Now, families impacted by natural disasters can focus on rebuilding their lives and communities without the added burden of overwhelming federal tax liabilities," he stated.
Gallagher also reflected on his past efforts in 2022 when he sponsored state legislation to ensure proper compensation for fire victims. He considers these measures as positive steps towards offering meaningful assistance to Californians in need.
In his statement, Gallagher extended gratitude to Congressman Doug LaMalfa for his role in advancing the bill through Congress. "I especially want to thank Congressman Doug LaMalfa for his tireless efforts in shepherding this bill through Congress to get signed by the president," Gallagher noted.
He emphasized that this legislative success represents a victory for both the local community and all Californians who have endured challenges from wildfires and other natural disasters. Gallagher reaffirmed his commitment to supporting communities as they work towards recovery and resilience.
