Dear Neighbor,
I am happy that the Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act has been signed into law. This vital legislation provides much-needed federal tax relief to families and businesses impacted by natural disasters.
Now, families impacted by natural disasters can focus on rebuilding their lives and communities without the added burden of overwhelming federal tax liabilities. I was proud to sponsor state legislation in 2022 to ensure fire victims receive proper compensation for their losses. These are positive steps forward in delivering meaningful assistance to Californians in need.
I especially want to thank Congressman Doug LaMalfa for his tireless efforts in shepherding this bill through Congress to get signed by the president. This is a win for our community and all Californians who have faced unimaginable challenges due to wildfires and other natural disasters.
I am committed to supporting our communities as they recover and rebuild stronger than ever.
With regards,
Assemblyman James Gallagher
California’s 3rd Assembly District
