To allow an individual to designate on his or her annual state income tax return that a contribution of $1 or more of his or her refund be credited to the Military Family Relief Fund proposed by House Bill 5954. This would have the effect of reducing the amount of a person’s tax refund. A person not receiving a refund could use his or her tax return to contribute to the fund. Twenty percent of the donations would be provided to veterans’ hospitals, and 80 percent would be credited to the Military Family Relief Fund.
