What this bill would do
This bill is known as the Strengthening Resources for our Schools Act or the SROS Act. It allows certain retired members of the Armed Forces and retired law enforcement officers to exclude their retirement income from their gross income while they work as school resource officers. To qualify, these individuals must pass a required background check and comply with all applicable requirements of their State's peace officer standards and training agency. If an individual works as a school resource officer for at least 10 years, they can continue to exclude their retirement income from gross income after that employment ends. The bill also requires law enforcement agency heads to provide the Secretary with notice regarding the employment dates of these individuals.

Who it would affect, and how
Potential Positive Impacts for People
-
Under section 2(a) enacting section 139M(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, retired members of the Armed Forces and retired law enforcement officers who work as school resource officers do not have to include their retirement income in their gross income during the periods they are employed in that role, which could benefit these individuals by lowering their taxable income.
-
Under section 2(a) enacting section 139M(e) of the Internal Revenue Code, individuals who meet the requirements and are employed as a school resource officer for a period of not less than 10 years receive a lifetime exemption, meaning gross income does not include their retirement income during any period after that employment has ended.
